“This podcast changed my life.
About this time last year I began my personal development journey. While at the time I felt like I had everything figured out, the reality is that I was lost. My goals were clear, but my strategy to accomplish them was not.
I heard Rob Dyrdek on the impulsive podcast talking about tracking and how he scored every category of his life every day. This inspired me and led me to this podcast. After listening to a handful of early episodes of “build with Rob”, I was hooked. I sent a letter to Rob at the end of last year, explaining my situation, thanking him for the inspiration, and asking for more details regarding his tracking strategy. Rob didn’t answer, which ended up being the best response, because I wasn’t spoon fed a solution. I was forced to come up with and refine my own method.
I created my version of a quantified happiness calendar. I broke my life up into categories and tracked specific activities daily that contributed to these categories. I scored each category weekly to get an overall “happiness” score. This was the best year of my life. I haven’t been able to say that since 2019.
Right around the same time Rob switched to quick Monday morning uploads which I loved. I felt like Rob was answering all the questions I had slowly, week by week. I spent every Monday last year on a sunrise run getting wisdom from uncle Rob. This format felt efficient and was incredibly valuable for me. Some of the golden nuggets that I took away while listening last year will stick with me for the rest of my life.
I am genuinely sad to hear that this podcast is coming to an end. I will miss the Monday cadence and starting my week with a burst of unwavering positivity. I am certain that whatever you plan to do next has been strategically thought through and that you will continue to cast positivity and wisdom to the masses.
Thank you, Rob Dyrdek. Have an incredible holiday season with your family & good luck on whatever comes next !
