Since his work did affect my life, it was a very jarring thing to process. But like you stated, I still appreciate and acknowledge his benefit to people, but as an individual, the respect is not there. He can do as he wishes, but when he is knowingly being deceitful, then that goes out the window. As he stated many times in different contexts, “Do what you want, but know what you are doing,” so I will hold him to that he knew that such behavior was wrong on many levels but chose to do it.
thank you so much for writing this piece. I have been adopting his weekly training routine for several months now. As I read the New Yorker article, I didn't know what I should think as I respect the man himself for his work and I found the guide to improve my own life. Your work helps me step out a little bit of myself and think better. So thanks again.
