This is a rebroadcast. The episode originally ran in August 2020. Greg McKeown has dedicated his career to discovering why some people and teams break through to the next level—and others don't. The definitive treatment of this issue is addressed in his New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less. Greg hosts The Greg McKeown Podcast with guests such as Harvard professor Arthur Brooks, Matthew McConaughey, Maria Shriver, John Hope Bryant, and Ariana Huffington. He is one of the most sought-after public speakers globally, with clients including Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Nike. Originally from London, England, Greg now lives near Phoenix, Arizona, with his wife Anna and their family. In this interview Greg and Kurt talk about how small, consistent steps are more effective for creating lasting change than grand, overwhelming efforts. At the time of this recording, Greg was serving as an elders quorum president in his ward in California. Links Being an Essentialism Bishop | An Interview with Greg McKeown Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less GregMcKeown.com One-Minute Missionary Work videos Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights In this episode, Greg discusses the principles of essentialism and how they can be applied to leadership within the Latter-day Saint community. He emphasizes the importance of focusing on small, manageable changes to foster growth and connection in both personal and church leadership contexts. Key Insights Essentialism Defined: Essentialism is the disciplined pursuit of less, focusing on what truly matters rather than getting overwhelmed by numerous tasks and responsibilities. Small and Simple Changes: Greg highlights the scriptural principle that "by small and simple means are great things brought to pass," advocating for incremental improvements rather than sweeping changes. The Importance of Relationships: Building genuine relationships within the church community is crucial. Leaders should strive to understand the struggles of others, as most individuals face challenges that may not be immediately visible. Avoiding Overwhelm: Change does not have to be hard or abrupt. Leaders should focus on small, consistent actions that can lead to significant progress over time. Celebrating Successes: Recognizing and celebrating even minor achievements can motivate individuals and foster a sense of community and accomplishment. Leadership Applications Incremental Improvements: Latter-day Saint leaders can implement small changes in their quorums or wards, such as enhancing home teaching efforts by celebrating small successes rather than overhauling the entire system. Fostering Relationships: Leaders should prioritize building relationships by checking in on members regularly and asking meaningful questions to understand their needs better. Setting Realistic Goals: Instead of aiming for grandiose changes, leaders can focus on achievable, small goals that encourage participation and engagement, making it easier for members to contribute and feel valued. By applying these principles, leaders can create a more supportive and effective environment within their congregations, ultimately leading to stronger connections and spiritual growth. 00:02:40 - Essentialism and Its Impact 00:03:44 - Greg's Leadership Journey 00:05:06 - Adapting to COVID in Leadership 00:06:57 - The Power of Small Changes 00:09:06 - Celebrating Small Victories 00:10:24 - Family History Made Simple 00:12:12 - Overcoming Overwhelm in Family History 00:13:50 - The Importance of Small Steps 00:15:07 - Engaging with Family History 00:16:39 - The Reality of Change vs. Progress 00:18:30 - The Role of Empathy in Leadership 00:19:04 - Understanding Universal Suffering 00:20:10 - Building Relationships in Leadership 00:22:35 - The Challenge of Fixing Others' Problems

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Microsoft founder Bill Gates is calling for a change in the fight against climate change by shifting the focus away from reducing carbon emissions to fighting poverty and preventing disease and hunger. In an essay published Monday, Gates, who has long pushed for policies to limit the rise in temperatures, said resources should be diverted to improve life in warming parts of the world and improving the lives of people there.  Also the decades long "green" narrative and climate change rhetoric is losing its luster, NYC mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani already faces accusations of voter fraud, and a new poll reveals 70% of voters think the Democratic party is out of control.

Check out the episode in its original version here : https://www.gdiy.fr/podcast/reid-hoffman-vo/“Il n'y a pas de si. Il n'y a que des quand.”C'est ce que Reid Hoffman répond quand on lui demande si le fonctionnement des entreprises va profondément être révolutionné par l'IA, si elle pourra aider à gouverner un pays ou même si elle permettra de soigner les cancers.Et pour cause, les 6 mois qui séparent le premier épisode GDIY avec Reid et celui-ci, ont été le théâtre de percées historiques de l'IA.Mais ces 6 mois ont également marqué une fracture de plus en plus importante entre les États-Unis et l'Europe.Alors qu'une bonne partie des patrons de la tech américaine courbent un à un l'échine devant Donald Trump, Reid fait partie de ceux qui osent remettre en cause la politique de la peur et se battent pour la liberté d'expression, quitte à devenir persona non grata des figures de la tech.Après avoir cofondé Paypal puis LinkedIn, Reid Hoffman est devenu administrateur de dizaines d'entreprises dont OpenAI jusqu'en 2023 et Microsoft où il siège toujours.Il conseille aussi différents gouvernements — dont la France — qui le sollicitent pour comprendre comment mieux déployer l'IA dans la société et s'en servir pour gouverner.Dans cet épisode il donne ses meilleurs conseils et clés ultra concrètes pour utiliser le plein potentiel de l'IA et dévoile son utilisation quotidienne : pour écrire, pour penser, pour critiquer ses propres idées.Un homme brillant et mesuré, loin des “techs bros” radicaux, qui œuvre avant tout pour contribuer au progrès de l'humanité.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : « L'IA améliore grandement la connexion humaine. »00:10:05 : Les meilleurs hacks de Reid pour l'IA au quotidien00:20:13 : Comment aider les États à déployer l'IA dans la société00:31:24 : Ce que la politique de la peur de Trump change aux États-Unis00:49:48 : La révolution du “vibe coding” et pourquoi tout le monde doit s'y intéresser01:01:53 : Guérir les cancers grâce à l'IA ?01:06:55 : Pourquoi tout le monde devrait utiliser l'IA, même les retraités01:13:23 : Lancer une boîte avec 0 € en 2025 : ce que ferait Reid01:20:14 : Amazon, Microsoft, Google : qui surfe le mieux sur la vague de l'IA01:28:17 : « Ne sois pas anxieux.

Retrouvez l'épisode en version française ici : https://www.gdiy.fr/podcast/reid-hoffman-vf/“There is no if. There is only when.”That's how Reid Hoffman answers when asked whether AI will revolutionize business, help govern nations, or cure cancer.And he's earned the right to say it. In the six months between his first appearance on GDIY and this one, we've witnessed some of the biggest breakthroughs in AI history.But those same six months have also deepened the rift between the U.S. and Europe.While most of Silicon Valley's leaders are bowing to President Trump's politics of fear, Reid remains one of the few willing to challenge it — defending freedom of speech in its purest form, not the version sanctioned by power.After co-founding PayPal and LinkedIn, he went on to serve on the boards of dozens of companies including OpenAI until 2023, and Microsoft, where he still sits today.He also advises several governments seeking to understand how AI can be deployed responsibly across society — and even in governance itself.In this episode, Reid shares how to unlock AI's full potential, and how he personally uses it every day : to write, to think, and to challenge his own ideas.A brilliant, grounded mind — far from the radical “tech bros” — driven not by hype, but by a genuine belief in progress.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : “AI is a fantastic enablement of human connection”00:10:05 : Reid's best hacks for daily uses of AI00:20:13 : How to help governments deploy AI in society00:31:24 : What Trump's fear-based government is changing in the US00:49:48 : The vibe-coding revolution and why you should pay attention01:01:53 : Curing cancers with AI?01:06:55 : Why everybody should use AI, even retired people01:13:23 : Start a company with $0 in 2025: what would Reid do01:20:14 : Amazon, Microsoft, Google: who's winning the AI race01:28:17 : “Don't be anxious.

P.M. Edition for Oct. 28. In an exclusive, we're reporting on a trade framework that President Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping are set to discuss later this week that could see the U.S. rolling back some tariffs on China. WSJ trade and economic policy reporter Gavin Bade discusses what we know about the framework, and what that means for the U.S.-China relationship. Plus, UPS says it has cut 48,000 jobs in management and operations, pushing its stock price to close up 8%. And OpenAI has transitioned into a more traditional structure. We hear from WSJ reporter Keach Hagey about what that means for the company and its longtime partner Microsoft. Alex Ossola hosts. Sign up for the WSJ's free What's News newsletter.

It will also require new behaviors and sharper priorities that strengthen our retail leadership in style and design and enable faster execution so we can: Lead with merchandising authority; Elevate the guest experience with every interaction; and Accelerate technology to enable our team and delight our guests.”Does anyone know what that word salad actually means?

AI assistants are currently misrepresenting news content 45% of the time, according to a study by the European Broadcasting Union. This research, which evaluated 3,000 responses from popular AI chatbots, including ChatGPT and Google Gemini, revealed that 31% of responses had serious sourcing issues, while 30% contained inaccuracies. Notably, Google's Gemini performed the worst, with 76% of its outputs flawed. This raises significant concerns about the reliability of AI in disseminating information, particularly as these tools increasingly serve as intermediaries between users and content.In addition to issues of accuracy, a study from Stanford and Harvard found that AI chatbots tend to flatter users rather than challenge them, validating user behavior 50% more than human counterparts. This tendency to agree rather than provide constructive feedback can lead to a lack of critical engagement, further complicating the role of AI in decision-making processes. Furthermore, the Wikimedia Foundation reported an 8% decline in human traffic to Wikipedia, attributed to generative AI chatbots and search engines that provide direct answers without redirecting users to original sources. This trend highlights the growing challenge faced by platforms reliant on user engagement.The episode also discusses advancements in AI capabilities from major players like Microsoft, OpenAI, and Anthropic. Microsoft has introduced updates to its CoPilot AI assistant, including a group chat feature and a new Real Talk mode that encourages more dynamic interactions. OpenAI's ChatGPT can now search across multiple applications, while Anthropic's Claude has introduced a memory feature that retains past conversations. These developments indicate a shift towards more integrated and context-aware AI systems that can enhance collaboration and user experience.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT service leaders, the implications are clear. The effectiveness of AI now hinges on context, governance, and integration rather than just model size. As AI tools become more prevalent, the responsibility for ensuring their safe and effective use falls on providers. This presents an opportunity for MSPs to develop new service lines focused on AI hygiene and governance, helping clients navigate the complexities of AI while maximizing its potential benefits.Four things to know today 00:00 The Limits of AI: Research Shows Chatbots Mislead, Overagree, and Undermine the Information Ecosystem04:27 A 1997 PC Running AI?

With Xbox's famous ringworld officially arriving on PlayStation 5 in 2026, we can rest assured that Sony's longtime rival has finally conceded the console space for good. Halo: Campaign Evolved -- clever! -- is a ground-up remake of the smash-hit 2001 Xbox launch title, and it comes with some new bells and whistles, including fresh content and a four-player online-enabled campaign. Microsoft even trotted Halo's community manager out in a PlayStation shirt, promised all upcoming Halo content is Sony-bound, and yielded perhaps their last meaningful franchise to the competition. This gives us much to discuss! Plus: Helldivers 2 dev Arrowhead begins work on its next project, Horizon's live-action movie is slated to film next year and launch in '27, Resident Evil 0 Remake rumors are percolating, we may be waiting a while longer for Starfield's PS5 debut, Electronic Arts scores a renewed deal with the NFL to continue the Madden franchise, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Why does anyone care about Photo Mode? What's our dream PowerWash Simulator 2 DLC? Is it okay to play a game without delving into its greater meaning and themes?

From Netscape to VMware, Raghu Raghuram has been at the center of nearly every major inflection point in enterprise technology.In this episode, Raghu joins Ben Horowitz, Martin Casado and David George to reflect on the early internet wars with Microsoft, how Netscape's browser battles shaped a generation of founders, and the inside story of one of the most successful tech acquisitions in history, VMware's $1.3B purchase of Nicira, which redefined modern networking and grew into a multi-billion-dollar business.They discuss how VMware scaled from tens of millions to over $13 billion in revenue, what it took to outlast the cloud revolution, and why AI is now triggering the biggest infrastructure reset since virtualization. Raghu shares his vision for the next decade — from data-center robotics and energy-aware compute to how AI is reshaping both startups and giants alike. Resources:Follow Raghu on X: https://x.com/RaghuRaghuramFollow Ben on X: https://x.com/bhorowitzFollow Martin on X: https://x.com/martin_casadoFollow David on X: https://x.com/DavidGeorge83 Stay Updated: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://x.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Follow our host: https://x.com/eriktorenbergPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey are joined by their colleague Gabe Marshank. Gabe is the editor of the new Market Maven newsletter, an advisory focused on asymmetric risk-versus-reward opportunities in the stock market. He's also senior analyst on Stansberry's Investment Advisory and Commodity Supercycles. Gabe kicks things off by describing how he got his start in finance, including discovering the world of hedge funds and working for investing legends Leon Cooperman, Steve Cohen, and David Einhorn. He shares what he learned from each investor and how those lessons have affected his current strategy. Gabe also discusses how today's financial world has changed since the 20th century, why the idea of value investing from Benjamin Graham's era is outdated, bankruptcy being capitalism's greatest tool, and what the dot-com boom tells us about future AI success stories. (0:00) Next, Gabe dives deep on Apple. He says the company has bungled its lead on agentic AI in phones, similar to how IBM fumbled its lead with PCs. As he points out, most of the top 10 stocks in the S&P 500 Index change each decade. So he's looking forward to finding what companies could replace today's big dogs. This leads Gabe to critique Microsoft and Amazon Web Services as "at risk," advise listeners not to worry about a potential AI market crash, and explain why he's looking outside of tech for opportunities today. (21:28) Finally, Gabe says consumer discretionary would be a good sector to investigate for future winners, as it's likely to benefit from AI transformations. He emphasizes that AI does not just mean chatbots and large language models – it's machine learning, too. Industries like onshore oil drilling have been using that technology already to improve their efficiency. Gabe then closes the show out with a conversation about copper prices and the commodity industry as a whole. (38:18)

In this episode, Eric and Brian kick off the week with a look at the SPX options market, recent price action, and key gamma levels heading into FOMC week. Eric recaps his recent put credit spread trades from Alpha Crunching, discusses how he's managing new positions into record highs, and explains how he's balancing bullish exposure with call credit spreads and discretionary hedges. The conversation also covers upcoming events—including major tech earnings from Apple, Microsoft, and Google—and how they might influence market sentiment.Brian shares a practical example of a LEAPS diagonal trade on AVGO that's been profitable even without much price movement, illustrating how selling weekly calls can generate consistent income against a long-dated call. The two also discuss covered call timing, hedging approaches, and using instruments like SSO to gain leveraged exposure with less capital.
