Whether we like it or not, our desire for status is a fundamental human motive. You’re the hero in your own story that you live out each day and ultimately it’s the unconscious status game you play that defines who you are. But is our desire for status such a bad thing? Will Storr, author of The Status Game tells us that status is what drives you to be a better person, more confident and more successful. In this episode, expect to learn why status is a fundamental part of the human condition and what you can do to gain more status in the modern world.
