This time around, we have a bit of a different format, featuring the book that started it all for me, The 4-Hour Workweek. Readers and listeners often ask me what I would change or update, but an equally interesting question is: what wouldn't I change? What stands the test of time and hasn't lost any potency? This episode features two of the most important chapters from the audiobook of The 4-Hour Workweek. The chapters push you to defend your scarce attention—one by saying no to people, the other by saying no to excess information.Sponsors:David Protein Bars 28g of protein, 150 calories, and 0g of sugar: https://davidprotein.com/tim (Buy 4 cartons, get the 5th free.)Our Place's Titanium Always Pan® Pro using nonstick technology that's coating-free and made without PFAS, otherwise known as “Forever Chemicals”: https://fromourplace.com/tim (Shop their Spring Sale today!)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: https://DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Life is full of magical moments—if we're willing to be the first to say yes! In this episode of the Powerhouse Feng Shui Podcast, I share a powerful lesson about perspective, kindness, and stepping up as a leader in our own lives. A simple conversation with a stranger reminded me how much our outlook shapes our experiences, and how shifting our perspective can open up a world of possibilities. From an unexpected connection in Bali to an unforgettable experience at the New Earth Cookery School, I dive into the power of trusting synchronicities and following those little nudges from the universe. Whether it's dancing on tables, singing karaoke, or jumping into a river fully clothed, sometimes the best moments come when we embrace spontaneity and lead with joy. Just like Richard Branson says—you have to be the first one! Join me as I reflect on these beautiful experiences and how they align with the principles of Feng Shui and intentional living. How can we bring this energy of adventure, openness, and trust into our homes and lives? Let's explore how small shifts—whether in our mindset or our environment—can unlock powerful transformations. Ready to say yes to life's magic? Let's dive in!   Key Takeaways:  The way we see the world directly influences our experiences. The best experiences often come from saying yes, even when it feels unexpected or out of our comfort zone. Being open to spontaneity brings more fun, connection, and fulfillment into our lives. Small acts of kindness and genuine conversations can have a profound impact on both ourselves and others. We never know what ripple effect a single moment of connection might create.

Interview by Angela CroudaceHeavy metal legend Ross The Boss is set to electrify Australia next week, and he couldn't be more excited. Reflecting on his previous visit, Ross recalls the overwhelming love he received from Aussie fans. "The reaction nerfed me," he laughed. "The intensity, especially in Melbourne, was unbelievable."Ross, a founding member of Manowar, spoke passionately about the creation of Sign of the Hammer, revealing that the band often recorded more tracks than needed, seizing every opportunity in the studio. A highlight was recording at Richard Branson's famed Manor Studio — a surreal experience that included sleeping in rooms once occupied by historical figures like William the Conqueror.This upcoming tour features what Ross calls the best version of the RTB band yet, boasting powerhouse musicians like Dirk Schlächter (Gamma Ray) and drummer Sean Elg. “We're coming to melt faces,” Ross promises, highlighting the group's precision and raw power.When asked about his time in Manowar, Ross candidly shared that he wished he'd been firmer with his bandmate Joey DeMaio. "Sometimes I should've put my foot down more," he admitted. Despite past challenges, he now channels his passion purely through his guitar, still rooted in the soulful blues influences of B.B. King and Albert King.Ross also touched on the emotional impact his music has had. "People tell me it saved their lives," he said, visibly moved. "It's an honour I don't take lightly."As Ross prepares to unleash a storm of classic anthems down under, he leaves fans with one promise: “We'll give you 150%. When the final note rings out, we want you to feel it in your soul — and want us back.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Chuck Blakeman Built 13 Businesses Across 4 Continents—Then Discovered Why 99% of Entrepreneurs Fail Chuck Blakeman was told he'd never be employable—so he built 13 businesses in 10 industries instead. But after decades of grinding, he realized the real reason businesses fail isn't cash flow, competition, or even bad luck… It's because the owner gets tired. Now, he teaches entrepreneurs how to break free from the "American Nightmare"—scaling businesses that give them freedom, not just income. This episode is a mindset reset for anyone stuck in the daily grind. Chuck reveals: Why "making money" is killing your business (and what to focus on instead) The #1 financial killer of healthy companies (hint: it's not lack of profit) How to stop selling to strangers and 10X revenue by serving your existing network Why employees are a bad idea—and what to hire instead The Africa disaster that cost him everything (and the one risk rule he broke) How Richard Branson built a empire without reading a P&L "Patient ambition"—why slow, profitable growth beats hyper-scaling Key Lessons From "Income Producer" to Business Owner: Why most founders don't actually own a business—they own a job. Cash Flow vs. Revenue: How a 2M→ 2M→9M business collapsed (and how to avoid it). Sell Less, Earn More: Why successful companies stop selling and start serving. The Partnership Trap: "The worst form of business… unless it works." The 3to5 Club: Where entrepreneurs finally say, "I don't know" out loud. Host: Tyler Martin, Fractional CFO & Business Coach Struggling to scale profitably? Let's talk:

New Sode; .Ok so picture this; I am at a sleepover. Cucumbers on eyes.  Politically incorrect Avocado mask to the face. Reading the Bitcoin whitepaper alongside the female clown that I invited to Suite at the 4 Seasons from stepchild's birthday party. We smoked a bedazzled joint and stacked Sats. It was To the backdrop of Chopin in E minor.  It's a good day to be alive when you're buying Bitcoins smoking with a clown who also voted Trump. We then ordered room service and danced to Taylor Swift Speak Now. And though it is a different album, it should be noted that We are never ever ever ever ever buying NFTsIn the morning I went to the Salon downstairs to contemplate my vapid existence and a  pedicure. . I chose the toe polish color I trampled my  husband with my Maserati Sha 256. A silvery fiat color.  So I can give my lover, my driver, an elegant footjob under the table at Raos. Suddenly I  felt better or maybe it was the quaalude. In 90s chanel,in a quaalude haze in the massage chair turned on high and and sats settled into wallet,  I turned to the clown and asked if she would accept Bitcoin as payment. Cash only she said; Dont' you want money that cant be tampered with thats portable and fungible and liquid gold? No said the Clown. Give me the Cash.  Alas, if clowns and pot dealers are no longer taking BTC what's a wannabe cracked out social climbing alcoholic manic bipolar shoplifting porn/birkin addicted gal to do? Sigh, I took out a crumpled hundred that I had taped with blue glitter and paid. I trudged to the Lexus and met step daughter at music class.  Insert the tambourine. Insert Raffi. If the clown cannot understand the future of Ai infused quantum sound money then who's the clown now?I digress. My guest today is Russian Ukrainian Californian Jewish Royalty Tatiana Koffman  author of the book the Myth of Money. I didnt read it; but I bought it for the aesthetic. Tatiana has an envious career histoire and currently is a partner at MoonWalker Capital. She is Bitcoin only and  everything else is complete Poubelle, that's french for garbage.  I thought Moonwalker meant she jad  walked on the moon and had alien diet secrets;No. But.  She is relatable due to her witnessing of the collapse of the Soviet Union, her friendship with Richard Branson and her time spent with Billionaire crypto bros in Dubai. I just knew we would be dear friends. Tatiana and I met on a chair lift in Gstaad and we orange pilled each other and the rest is histoire. "Had I read Tatiana's book , I would imagine it is one of resilience, strength, and hope."But luckily I know she's a great story teller and you will too. In fact her story is filled with just enough glitz- glamour- spirituality- fraud- crypto celebrity and quantitative easy easing that would make any kind yet vapid party girl almost pick up a book.

Episode Overview In this episode, John Kitchens sits down with the incomparable Curtis Shewell—a master of authentic connection and persuasive communication. Fresh from an exclusive mastermind with Sir Richard Branson on Necker Island, Curtis unpacks how being authentically dialed in to your intentions, language, and energy opens doors that most only knock on. From navigating elite rooms to converting “No” into opportunity, this conversation is a must-listen for any agent or entrepreneur looking to grow through genuine influence and strategic presence. Key Topics Covered Getting in the Right Rooms How Curtis got into private mastermind rooms with elite entrepreneurs (including Richard Branson) by being curious, not pushy. Why body language and listening create deeper connection than scripted pitches ever could. Leading with Value How to make deposits before withdrawals—and why that builds loyalty and influence. Why people remember how you make them feel, not your accolades. Authenticity as a long-game play in sales, leadership, and team-building. Mastering Your Message Crafting an authentic, curiosity-driven elevator pitch (“I help people accumulate wealth and residual income through real estate.”) Why “I'm a Realtor” is the weakest answer to “What do you do?”—and how to say something that gets people asking for more. The #1 mistake agents make when speaking to someone more successful than them—and how to avoid it. Authentic Sales That Don't Feel Salesy Why “No” is your friend—and how to use it to build trust, not resistance. Curtis' approach to objections: leading with empathy, permission, and authentic dialogue. Why most agents oversell and underconnect—and how to flip that dynamic instantly. Introducing: Dialed In Coaching What agents really need right now: skill-building in a no-pressure, no-hype environment. Why Curtis created Dialed In: for less than the cost of a cup of coffee a week, agents can roleplay, sharpen scripts, and master their message.

Above Photograph © Chase Jarvis We've all heard the saying “The best camera is the one that's with you.” But do you know how this catch phrase ended up as a mantra of the mobile economy? In today's show, we speak with Chase Jarvis, the man behind Best Camera—the wildly successful photo sharing app that predated Instagram—to get an inside look at his wild ride.  A born entrepreneur and self-made photographer with a hunger that always worked against the grain, Chase's meteoric rise in action sports/lifestyle photography dovetailed with the dawn of the sharing economy, leading him to a moonshot idea. The ensuing saga of Best Camera's viral success, subsequent demise, and Chase's quick pivot into his next visionary business model—Creative Live—is both a cautionary tale and a redemption story. All told, you'll gain fascinating insights into the nexus of creative innovation and big business at the highest levels.  When asked about his biggest take away from Best Camera given the benefit of hindsight, Chase doesn't miss a beat, responding, “If you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go together.” Guest: Chase Jarvis Episode Timeline: 3:44: How Chase's mastery of sports and the gift of his grandfather's camera gear led to a passion for teaching himself photography. 9:33: Channeling real-world examples from his grandfather and father into early pictures, along with library books about the masters' and photographic techniques. 15:35: The development of Chase's early entrepreneurial spirit and how his second-grade teacher stifled these efforts. 22:50: Bucking trends and connecting with the uniqueness you bring to your images as a creative style. 26:32: Embracing social media and the sharing community early on and the ability to see around the corner as an entrepreneur. 35:53: Chase's fast track to commercial success, technological innovation, and developing the Best Camera App. 46:20: Episode Break 47:48: The lessons learned from the Best Camera failure and how Chase channeled these lessons into the success of the first livestreaming learning platform, Creative Live. 52:24: Making the pivot from the first live photo feed to building Creative Live as a way to answer questions the questions asked by a massive global audience.  1:00:51: Creative Live's pioneering approach to a freemium business model, plus offering access as a core company value. 1:05:29: The most popular offerings at Creative Live: the fundamentals, the business of classes, and the big name thought leaders. 1:12:38: Chase's views on the current—and future—landscape in social media, creativity, and AI, plus advice for getting comfortable being uncomfortable.  1:20:43: What success means to Chase, and the message in his recent book Never Play it Safe: A Practical Guide to Freedom, Creativity and a Life You Love. Guest Bio:  Chase Jarvis is an award-winning artist, entrepreneur, bestselling author, and one of the most influential photographers of the past 20 years, whose diverse portfolio spans from advertising campaigns for Apple, Nike, and Red Bull to collaborations with athletes like Serena Williams and icons such as Lady Gaga and Sir Richard Branson. As an early adopter of social media and the sharing economy, Chase created Best Camera (the first photo-sharing app) in 2009 and co-founded the online education platform CreativeLive in 2010. Chase has spoken on six continents and advised Fortune 100 companies, with invitations to both the Obama White House and Buckingham Palace.

“And so all of our activities, all of our food, all of our ethos gets you to a place of just absolute peace. With that peace, you can find whatever it is that you're needing to break through. And once you break through, you can serve more than just your own problems. You can start solving these problems in the world.”We're in great company with Britnie Faith Turner, the Founder and Owner of The Aerial, BVI, a private island experience with the best views in the British Virgin Islands that acts as a force for good. What appears as an all-inclusive eco-resort goes well beyond just that—serving as an incubator for positive transformation, delivering a never-before-seen kind of luxury for its guests.Yet The Aerial, BVI is only a small piece in Britnie's larger plan to build numerous businesses that are for purpose, not for profit. As Britnie tells of the serendipitous beginnings of each, the story reveals a theme of elevating people and places through the pursuit of excellence.  In this episode, as we celebrate Women's History Month around the world, Britnie encourages us all to travel the world and discover our own ‘Aerial'—that higher perspective where we realize we are a part of something bigger than ourselves.  Top Takeaways[2:00] From humble beginnings living in her car while working for free, Britnie developed an eye for excellence—as she witnessed third-world poverty alongside first-world despair, realizing her mission would take her far beyond material success.[4:50] How an unexpected vision led Britnie to turn from mindful revitalization of dangerous neighborhoods to journey to find an island sanctuary where she would invite visitors to awaken their own transformational potential. [10:10] Britnie grew up self-admittedly hating wealthy people, yet before long, she sought out to surround herself with some of the richest people on the planet—finding this sense of discomfort and dreaming contagious.[15:00] Buying and building on a private island is not as easy as one might imagine—and yet even through a devastating divorce, two category-five hurricanes that annihilated the BVI, and a grand opening that coincided precisely with the global COVID-19 pandemic, Britnie's faith was unwavering.  [24:15] Inspired by personal passions, chance encounters, and loved ones, Heal the Heroes transforms troubled veterans and first responders into humanitarian operators—creating an 'army of good' that has rescued over 8,400 people from trafficking and disasters. [30:25] From sunrise to sunset, The Aerial, BVI captures the sacred healing properties of the Island—sharing it with guests through locally sourced cuisine, uniquely created accommodations, and an abundance of wellness activities. [35:20] Why “Purpose Luxury” is the perfect blend of excellence and impact, and how the future of luxury travel provides those who have everything and yet nothing, with the one thing that some seek and everyone deserves—peace.  Notable Mentions The Virgin Way by Richard BransonRedemption RanchElevate SummitsVisit For YourselfThe Aerial, BVI Website | @theaerialbviAerial Recovery Website | @aerialrecoverygroupBritnie Turner Website | @britnieturner

Guest: Blake Scholl, Founder & CEO of Boom Supersonic“Passion and drive trumps knowledge and experience,” says Boom Supersonic CEO Blake Scholl. Long before he was running Boom — which earlier this year successfully tested the world's first privately-developed supersonic jet — he was enabling “the world's most obnoxious spam cannon” at Groupon, or designing a barcode-scanning game for retail shoppers.But eventually, Blake found the courage to be more audacious and do something closer to his lifelong love of aviation. He began educating himself about things he had never thought to learn, and tapping his LinkedIn network to get intros to the smartest people in the industry. “If you imagine yourself on like the day of IPO, 99 percent of what you needed to know to get to that day, you didn't know on day one,” he says. “So, why not take 99 percent to 99.5 percent, and work on the thing you really want to exist, even if you don't know anything about it yet?”Chapters: (01:07) - Blake on Boom's beginnings (01:52) - Breaking the sound barrier (05:23) - Concorde's legacy (09:36) - Navigating regulations (12:08) - Boomless supersonic flight (16:48) - The test flight (20:11) - Day-of nervousness (24:26) - Carrying passengers (26:55) - Cost & wi-fi (30:19) - “No middle seats” (32:35) - Hard tech (36:48) - What if Apple made a plane?

In this episode I am once again joined by Piers Cross, ex-Buddhist monk, coach, and creator of the documentary “Boarding on Insanity”. Piers explains the British boarding school system, examines its history and social context, and reveals how and why boarding school attendance is seen by many as a pathway to power. Piers recalls his own boarding school experience, the trauma and subsequent breakdown it caused, and describes the dynamic of the “privilege double-bind”. Piers recounts his years as a Buddhist monk, how he navigated suicide attempts and self harm with meditation and community support, and the powerful mystical experiences he encountered during his religious practice. Piers lists over two dozen leading figures in the arts, business, and politics who attended boarding school and reflects on the possibility of a leadership class affected by abandonment and dissociation by elite educational institutions. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep297-boarding-on-insanity-piers-cross Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'.

Terry is the creator of Relational Life Therapy, or RLT, which underpins all his books, courses, and teachings and equips people with the powerful relational skills they need to make love work. He is also the author of five books, including the New York Times bestseller Us: Getting Past You and Me to Build a More Loving Relationship.

Dr. Keith Baar is a Professor at the University of California, Davis in the Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology. During his Ph.D. studies, his research revealed that mechanical strain on muscle fibers activates the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, a crucial regulator of muscular hypertrophy. Subsequently, he studied the molecular dynamics of skeletal muscle adaptation to endurance training under the guidance of Dr. John Holloszy, a legend in the field of exercise physiology, considered the father of modern exercise biochemistry. Building on all of this experience, he conducted research into tendon health and the potential for engineering ligaments, which could have implications for treatment and recovery from injuries.Sponsors:Cresset prestigious family office for CEOs, founders, and entrepreneurs: https://cressetcapital.com/tim (book a call today)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: https://DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)Shopify global commerce platform, providing tools to start, grow, market, and manage a retail business: https://shopify.com/tim (one-dollar-per-month trial period)*Links to everything discussed: https://tim.blog/2025/02/26/dr-keith-baar/Timestamps:[00:00:00] Start [00:07:12] How I discovered Keith's work through a tweet about tennis elbow and rock climbing.[00:07:54] Emil Abrahamsson's hangboard training protocol.[00:09:20] The fundamental principles of strength training and connective tissue adaptation.[00:10:36] mTOR complex 1 and its role in muscle growth.[00:12:06] Engineered ligaments and the discovery of minimal effective doses for tendon adaptation.[00:13:50] The refractory period between optimal tendon loading sessions.[00:16:42] Rapamycin's effects on muscle hypertrophy.[00:18:49] Protocols for tennis elbow rehabilitation.[00:20:28] Why isometrics work better than eccentrics for tendon healing.[00:22:14] Stress shielding and how load distribution affects tendon healing.[00:29:07] The misconception about eccentric loading for tendon injuries and why velocity matters.[00:29:58] Ideal duration for isometric holds (10-30 seconds) based on injury status.[00:33:50] My elbow issues and current rehab approach.[00:36:02] Overcoming vs. yielding isometrics and optimal loading strategies.[00:47:11] Dr. Barr's movement prescription for my tennis elbow.[00:52:18] Loading timing post-surgery and RICE protocol criticism.[00:56:58] Achilles tendon rehabilitation after surgery.[01:00:18] Critique of orthopedic suturing techniques and recommendation for resorbable sutures.[01:04:02] Multiple position isometrics for tennis elbow rehabilitation.[01:07:26] Collagen synthesis, supplementation, and vitamin C timing.[01:12:59] Critique of BPC-157 and other injectable peptides for tendon healing.[01:18:19] Evaluation of orthobiologics' (PRP, prolotherapy, stem cells) effectiveness.[01:21:37] JAK-STAT inhibitor drugs and their effects on tendon growth.[01:25:35] Drugs that increase risk of tendon ruptures (fluoroquinolones, AT-1 receptor drugs).[01:29:33] How estrogen affects tendon stiffness and injury risk in women.[01:32:48] Testosterone's opposite effects on tendon compared to estrogen.[01:35:31] Protein intake recommendations and timing.[01:40:11] Ketogenic diet effects on mitochondrial biogenesis and longevity.[01:41:57] Comparison of ketogenic diet, low protein diet, and rapamycin for longevity.[01:47:19] Inflammation's role in adaptation and when to reduce it.[01:51:17] Timing of ice baths relative to training for optimal recovery.[01:52:33] Parting thoughts.*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This time around, we have a bit of a different format, featuring the book that started it all for me, The 4-Hour Workweek. Readers and listeners often ask me what I would change or update, but an equally interesting question is: what wouldn't I change? What stands the test of time and hasn't lost any potency? This episode features one of the most important chapters from the audiobook of The 4-Hour Workweek. It includes tools and frameworks that I use to this day, including Pareto's Law and Parkinson's Law. The chapter is narrated by the great voice actor Ray Porter.
