The 7 Life Lessons Found in High Stakes Poker - a KCL University Lecture by Charlie Carrel

This podcast features a professional poker player, Charlie Carrel, discussing seven life lessons he learned from playing high-stakes poker. The talk follows a Q&A format, where Carrel introduces each lesson (e.g., not being results-oriented, cultivating a healthy relationship with money) and then answers audience questions related to the topic. He emphasizes the importance of developing an abundance mindset, balancing intellect and intuition, and approaching life's challenges as games to be played. A key takeaway is the concept of "Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu," a Sanskrit mantra promoting the well-being of all beings, which Carrel uses as a guiding principle in his life and work. The podcast aims to help listeners improve their decision-making, emotional awareness, and overall approach to life by applying poker strategies and principles to various aspects of their lives.
