\u2013 Tim Ferris<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Read this first \u2013 how to use this book<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In a surprising number of cases, the power is in the absurd. The more absurd, the more \u201cimpossible\u201d question, the more profound answers. Take, for instance, question that serial billionaire Peter Theil likes to ask himself and others: \u201cIf you have a 10-year plan of how to get somewhere, you should ask: why can\u2019t you do this in six months?\u201d for purposes of illustration here, I might reword that to: \u201cWhat might you do to accomplish your 10 year goals in the next six months, if you had a gun against your head?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Red team my finances<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nearly everyone has done some sort of spec work (Completing projects on their own time in done, then submitting them to us perspective buyers)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Remember that the superheroes you have in your mind (idols, icons, titans, billionaires, etc.) are nearly all walking flaws to maximize one or two strengths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The tooth fairy might save your life or your kids\u2019 lives. Dr. Patrick introduce me to using teeth for stem cell banking. If you\u2019re having your wisdom teeth removed, or if your kids are losing her baby teeth, which have a particularly high concentration of dental pulp stem cells, consider using a company likes them like StemSave or National Dental Pulp Laboratory to preserve them for later use. These companies will send your oral surgeon a Kit, and then freeze the biological matter using liquid nitrogen. Cost very, but are roughly $625 for set up and then $125 dollars per year for storage and maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIf you don\u2019t have cancer and you do a therapeutic fast 1 to 3 times per year, you can purge any precancer cells that may be living in your body.\u201d Dom suggests a five-day fast 2 to 3 times per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cFasting before chemotherapy is definitely something that should be implemented in our oncology wards,\u201d says Dom. He adds, \u201cfasting essentially slows, sometimes stops, rapidly dividing cells and triggers and \u201cenergetic crisis\u201d that makes cancer cells selectively vulnerable to chemo and radiation.\u201d There are good studies to support this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of my friends is in full remission from advanced testicular cancer. Others and his chemo cohort were laid out 2 to 3 days in bed after chemo sessions, but he fasted for three days before sessions during 10 miles the next morning. Fasting sensitizes cancer cells to chemo, as mentioned, but it also helps normal cells read resist the toxicity. This isn\u2019t appropriate for all patients, especially those with extreme cachexia (muscle wasting), but it is applicable to many.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Five things in case of late stage emergency: <\/strong>here are five things dumb would do if you were diagnosed with one of the worst case scenarios- late stage glioblastoma (GBM), an aggressive brain cancer. Some of Don\u2019s colleagues are opposed to the \u201cstandard of care\u201d protocols, like chemotherapy. Based on the literature, Dom feels these are warranted in situations involving testicular cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, and in stage one and two breast cancer. Outside those examples,\u201d it makes little sense treat cancer was something we know is a powerful carcinogen (chemotherapy)\u201d. Dom five picks all of yours to work through overlapping mechanisms. This means that there is synergy in using them together. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. 1+1+1+1+1 = 10, let\u2019s say, not 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n FeetUp: the limiting factor for most people learning handstands is the wrists. This weakest link prevents you from getting enough upside down practice. The FeetUp device addresses this\u2013 imagine a small padded toilet seat cushion mounted on a low stool. You stick your head through it, rest your shoulders on the padding, grab the two handles, and kick up into a headstand or handstand, with your shoulders supporting your weight. This allows you to work on alignment, tightness, positional drills in higher volume. The feet up is Jason\u2019s preference, but it is hard-to-find in the United States (en.feetup.eu). The BodyLift Yoga Headstand and Yogacise Bench are similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On dropping running and picking up weights: there is value in exercise, though, and I think that the most important type of exercise, especially in terms of bang for your buck, is going to be really high intensity, heavy strength training. Strength training aids everything from glucose disposal and metabolic health to mitochondrial density and orthopedic stability. That last one might not mean much when you\u2019re a 30 something young buck, but when you\u2019re in your 70s, that\u2019s the difference between a broken hip and a walk in the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Short documentary called the pleasure of finding things out<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Many people lose hope when they try to lose weight. Fortunately, it need not be complicated. So I regularly fasten and enter ketosis, the slow carb diet has been my default diet for more than a decade. It works almost beyond belief and affects much more than appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From one reader: I just wanted to sincerely thank Tim for taking the time to research and write The 4 Hour Body. My mom, and her late 60s, lost +45 pounds and got off her high blood pressure meds that should been on for 20 years. She did all this in about three months. This means that I get to have her around for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Three high-yield exercises\u2013 Pavel\u2019s simple and sinister kettle bell program<\/p>\n\n\n\n My favorite odd stretch \u2013 windmills. Kettle bell windmills are incredible for hip rehab and rehab. The standing position is similar to yoga\u2019s trikonasana, but you support 70 to 80% of your weight on one leg while you keep the kettlebell overhead. YouTube is your friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cColeman is contagious\u201d – this is another of Pavel\u2019s favorite quotes. Here is an elaboration from the speech by Rourke Denver, former Navy Seal Commander.: \u201cA Master chief, the senior enlisted rank in the Navy\u2013 who is like a god to us\u2013 told us he was giving us an invaluable piece of advice that he born from another Master chief during the Vietnam War. He said, \u201cthis is the best thing you\u2019re ever going to learn and still training.\u201d We were excited to learn what it was, and he told us that when your leader, people are going to mimic your behavior, at minimum\u2026 it\u2019s a guarantee. So here\u2019s the key piece of advice, this is all he said: \u201cCalm is contagious.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n What we drink: larkmead everyone coffee, would you mix with his own mocha flavored \u201csuper food creamer\u201d (lairdsuperfood.com) It lights you up like a Christmas tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Practice going first: \u201cI always say that I\u2019ll go first \u2026 that means if I\u2019m checking out at the store, I\u2019ll say hello first. If I\u2019m coming across somebody and make eye contact, I\u2019ll smile first. I wish people would experiment with that in their life a little bit: be first, because\u2013 not all times, but most times \u2013 it comes in your favor. The response is pretty amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A lonely place is an unmotivated place: this line from Laird underscored everything I saw around him. He has a tightly bonded tried around him, and schedule group exercise appears to be the glue that keeps a group together. If you spend a lot of time thinking of the \u201chow\u201d and \u201cwhat\u201d of exercise as I do, you might consider asking yourself, \u201cwhat if I had to choose all of my exercises based on \u201cwho?\u201d first? What would I do is exercise or only allowed with other people?\u201d this is how I ended up diving into AcroYoga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Parenting advice: Laird and Gabby, married since 1997, have a very close and affectionate relationships with their three kids. I\u2019ve observed them over again. There\u2019s a lot of physical touch, and the pervasive feeling is one of warmth. It\u2019s lovely to be around. The following parenting tidbits are taken from different points in the conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gabby on learning assertion: as a woman, we\u2019re taught us young girls, \u201dhey, be nice. Nice girls act like this,\u201d So it takes a long time to get to the place of \u201dI\u2019m going to do things, say things, and believe in things that people are going to like, and I\u2019m going to be okay with that.\u201d Men do that much more easily, and it takes women a very long time. The only female athletes I\u2019ve seen that do it very easily or generally the youngest girl in the family with older brothers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the male female dynamic in relationships:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Laird: of 10,000 successful couple studied, and there\u2019s only one thing that everybody had in common, no matter what the dynamic. What is it? The man respected the woman. The number one thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gabby: what can I say one thing? I know all those dynamics differ\u2013 the woman\u2019s the bread winner, the man\u2019s the breadwinner, she\u2019s dominant, he\u2019s dominate, whatever\u2013 But ultimately, more times than not, if the woman can refrain from trying to change or mother her partner, she has a greater opportunity of putting herself in a position where the guy will respect her. A Man needs support. I mean, I love you guys in your all strong, but you\u2019re very fragile, and you need to be supported and for us to help you fully realize your voice, whatever that is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lord said to me the first couple of years we were together \u2013 unfortunately, his mom passed away the second year we were together\u2013 \u201cI had a mom, and she died. He made it very clear\u2026 That\u2019s off the table. Women are by nature, we can\u2019t help it, we\u2019re nurtures, right? So sometimes that seeps over into, \u201dhey, honey, that joke was kind of inappropriate at the dinner table, and you\u2019re talking kind of loud,\u201d and all that. And because the man trying to be loving, they pacify us and change all the ways we want them to, and then we don\u2019t want them. So then it\u2019s a great thing to just say, \u201dhey, I\u2019m going to pick a partner when I feel like our value systems are similar, we may get there very differently, but\u2026 How we wind up on some the big items is the same.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n On weighing sacrifices based on individual \u2013 what\u2019s easy for you isn\u2019t what\u2019s easy for someone else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gabby: for man to say, quote I\u2019m going to really try to be with one woman,\u201d they\u2019re giving for you\u2026 Most of what they\u2019ve got. They\u2019re giving you like 80%. For woman maybe she\u2019s giving you 35% to be monogamous\u2026 Or let\u2019s say I was very shy and I came out and was having a very nice conversation with you. Maybe I\u2019m giving you 200% because of my nature. So I think it\u2019s also starting to understand who they are, that they\u2019re giving how they can give, and receiving it that way\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n Laird: stop drinking now. Stop drinking right now and patent all your ideas\u2026 and Exercise compassion every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Doses and Effects of LSD:<\/p>\n\n\n\n 100 mcg is useful for creative problem-solving with non-personal matters. A number of Nobel prize laureates in chemistry, biology, and elsewhere trip attribute breakthroughs to LSD. Jim once worked on a study involving large companies and research institutes trying to solve incredibly difficult problems like new circuit board designs. Volunteers were given psychedelics, and 44 out of the 48 problems were \u201dsolved,\u201d meeting resulted in a patent, product, or publication. Jim attributes this to enhance focus and pattern recognition. Low enough doses (100 mcg of LSD or 200 mg of mescaline) can immensely increase the capacity to solve problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe said, \u201dyou may come to the study, and will give you the most creative day your life. You have to have a problem which obsesses you that you have been working on for a couple of months and that you failed to solve\u201d\u2026 We wanted them to have a lips an emotional quote money in the game\u201d. We give them psychedelics and have them relax of music and eyeshades for couple of hours. And then, right at the peak, we bring them out and say, \u201cyou may work on your problem\u201d\u2026 what was wonderful is nobody did any personal therapeutic work because that\u2019s not what they came for. And out of the 48 problems that people came in with, 44 had solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 50 mcg Is considered a \u201cconcert does\u201d or quote museum dose.\u201d Self explanatory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 10 to 15 mcg is a \u201cmicrodose.\u201d Described by Jim: \u201ceverything is just a little better. You know at the end Of The Day when you say, \u201cwow that was really good day\u201d? That\u2019s of those people report on my producing. They\u2019re a little bit nicer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n He elaborates: \u201cwhat I\u2019m finding is that micro doses of LSD or mushrooms maybe very helpful for depression because they make you feel better enough that you do something about what\u2019s wrong with your life. We\u2019ve made depression and illness. Maybe the body\u2019s way of saying, \u201dyou better deal with something, because it\u2019s making me really sad.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n A microdose \u2018s psychedelic\u2019s is actually a low enough dose I could be called quote Sub perceptual, which means you don\u2019t necessarily see any differences in the outside world. As one person said to me, \u201crocks don\u2019t glitter even a little, and the flowers don\u2019t turn to watch you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Albert Hoffman, the inventor of LSD, considered Microdosing the most neglected areas of research. Hoffman microdosed LSD often for the last few decades of his life. He would take it when he was walking among trees. In Jim\u2019s opinion, Microdosing psychedelics does a far better job in the whole class of drugs we now call \u201dcognitive enhancers,\u201d most of which are simply derivatives of speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Oddly, there are consistent reports of micro dosing having a lag effect. I\u2019ve experienced this myself, and it\u2019s the reason for Slim Berriss\u2019 Monday\/Friday spacing of ibogaine. Many microdosers, including one executive who runs a large corporation with manufacturing in five countries, have said, \u201dThe second day is better.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The campfire squat test<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201dIf you can\u2019t squat all the way down to the ground with your feet and knees together, then you are missing full hip and ankle range of motion. This is the mechanism causing your hip impingement, plantar fasciitis, torn Achilles, pulled calf, etc. that is the fucking problem, and you should be obsessing about fixing this.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Doing light weight overhead squats with a narrow stance, in combination with Coassack squats, for three months is what help me get 99% toward passing the \u201ccampfire test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Go zero drop for your kids<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Get your kids and yourself flat \u201dzero drop\u201d shoes, where the toes and heel are equal distance from the ground. I wear vans for this reason, my favorite model being vans classics slip on skate shoes in black. This can be used for hiking in a pinch, I want to business meeting traveling light. Kelly elaborates on the rationale of zero to drop: \u201cDon\u2019t systematically shorten your kids heel cords (Achilles) with bad shoes. It resulting crappy ankle range of motion in the future. Get your kids fans, Chuck Taylors, or some more shoes. Have them in flat shoes are barefoot as much as possible\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Is that a dream or a goal? <\/strong>Evander Holyfield said that his coach at one point told him, something like his very first day, \u201cyou could be the next Mohammad Ali. Do you want to do that?\u201d Evander said he had to ask his mom. He went home, came back and said, \u201cI want to do that.\u201d The coach said, \u201cokay. Is that a dream or goal? Because there\u2019s a difference.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019ve never heard it said that way, but it stuck with me. So much so that I said it to my kid now \u201cis that a dream, or a goal?\u201d Because a dream is something you fantasize about that will probably never happen. The goal is something you set a plan for, worked toward, and achieve. I always looked at my stuff that way. The people who were successful models to me were people who have structured goals and then put a plan in place to get those things. I think that\u2019s what impressed me about Arnold Schwarzenegger. It\u2019s what impressed me about my father-in-law Vince McMahon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat am I continuing to do myself that I\u2019m not good at?\u201d And improve it, eliminate it, or delegate it<\/p>\n\n\n\n How he hires for coveted spots in his lab<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201dI don\u2019t really have a type methodology for how I do that. A lot of it is that connection you get with someone when they\u2019re talking about what they do, what excites them. That\u2019s usually where I start: \u201cwhat do you think about that really gets you excited?\u201d because I\u2019m more interested in what drives someone and motivates them to make some want to get out of bed in the morning than a list of classic resume checkboxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Carl Sagan\u2019s Cosmos<\/em>\u00a0 series inspired Adam to become a scientist, which is true for many of the top-tier scientists I\u2019ve met and interviewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We suggest finding a \u201cmindfulness buddy\u201d in committing to a 15 minute conversation every week, covering at least these two topics: 1) How am I doing with my commitment to my practice? 2) What has arisen in my life that relates to my practice?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Take one breath a day. I may be the laziest mindfulness instructor in the world because I tell my students that all they need to commit to one mindful breath of day. Just one. Breathing in breathe out mindfully, and your commitment for the day is fulfilled. Everything else is a bonus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the joy of loving\u2013 kindness. It turns out that being on the giving end of a kind thought it\u2019s rewarding in and of itself\u2026a all other things being equal, to increase your happiness, all you have to do is randomly wish for somebody else to be happy. That is all. It basically takes no time and no effort<\/p>\n\n\n\n How far can you push this joy of loving \u2013 kindness? One time, I gave a public talk in the meditation center called Spirit rock in California. As usual, I guided the audience in this 10 second exercise, and just for fun, I assigned them homework. I was speaking on a Monday evening, the next day, Tuesday, was a work day, so I told the audience to do this exercise for Tuesday: once an hour, every hour, randomly identify to people walking past your office and secretly wish for each of them to be happy. You don\u2019t have to do or say anything\u2013 just think, \u201cI wish for this person to be happy.\u201d And since nobody knows what you\u2019re thinking, it\u2019s not embarrassing \u2013 you can do this exercise entirely in stealth. And after 10 seconds of doing that, go back to work. That\u2019s all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hi Tim,<\/p>\n\n\n\n Patience. Far too soon to expect strength improvements. Strength improvements for a movement like this take a minimum of six weeks. Any perceived improvements prior to that are simply the result of the improved synaptic facilitation. In plain English, the central nervous system simply became more efficient at that particular movement with practice. This is, however, not to be confused with actual strength gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n dealing with the temporary frustration of not making progress isn\u2019t integral part of the path towards excellence. It is essential and something that every single elite athlete has had to learn to deal with. If the pursuit of excellence was easy, everyone would do it. In fact, this impatience in dealing with frustration is the primary reason that most people fail to achieve their goals. Unreasonable expectations timewise, resulting in unnecessary frustration, due to perceived feelings of failure. Achieving the extraordinary is not a linear process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n the secret is to show up, do the work, and go home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n a blue color work ethic married to an indominatable will. It is literally that simple. Nothing interferes. Nothing can sway you from your purpose. Once the decision is made, simply refuse to budge. Refused to compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n and accept that quality long-term results require quality long-term focus. No emotion. No drama. No beating yourself up over small bumps in the road. Learn to enjoy and appreciate the process. This is especially important because you are going to spend far more time on the actual journey than with those all too brief moment of triumph at the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Certainly celebrate the moment of triumph related Kurt. One importantly, learn from the feature that happen. In fact, if you\u2019re not encountering defeat fairly regular basis, you are not trying hard enough. And absolutely refused to except less than your best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n throw out a time line. It will take what it takes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the commitment is to a long-term goal and not to a series of smaller intermediate goals, but only one decision needs to be made and adhered to. Clear, simple, straightforward. Much easier to maintain than having to make small decision after small decision to stay the course when dealing with each step along the way. This provides far too many opportunities to inadvertently drift from your chosen goal. The single decision is one of the most powerful tools in toolbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chris elaborates: generally, what all this comes down to is whether you were on offense or defense. I think that as you survey the challenges in your lives, it\u2019s just: which of these did you assign yourself, which of those are you doing to please someone else? Your inbox is a to do list which anyone in the world can add an action item. I needed to get out of my inbox and back to my own to do list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Go to as many higher-level meetings as possible:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Tim: if working in the start up environment, what should one do our focus on to learn and improve as much as possible?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chris: go to all the meetings you can, even if you\u2019re not invited to them, and figure out how to be helpful. If people wonder why you\u2019re there, just start taking notes. Read all the other notes you can find on the company, and gain the general knowledge that your very limited job function may not offer you. Just make yourself useful and helpful by doing so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chris was well known at Google for showing up to meetings with anyone, including the cofounders. Even if the attendees looked at each other puzzled, Chris sat down and let them know he would be taking notes for them. It worked. He got a front row seat to the highest levels of Google and soon became a fixture in those meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sweet and Sour Summers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There\u2019s something my parents did, and it was pretty unique. My brother and I refer to it as \u201dthe sweet and sour Summer\u201d. My parents would send us, for the first half of the summer, to an internship with a relative or friend of the family who had an interesting job. Select twelve, I went and interned with my God brother who\u2019s a lobbyist in DC. I would go along with him to pitch congressmen with these filthy mouth \u2013 you know, the old Alabaman senator and stuff like that\u2013 And watch the pitch happen. It was awesome. I learned so much and developed so much confidence, and really honed my storytelling skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But then, from there, I\u2019ll come home and work in the construction outfit, and a nasty, nasty job. I mean, hosing off the equipment that have been used to fix septic systems, gassing shit up, dragging shit around in the yard, filling up propane tanks. Just being a junior guy on the totem pole, quite literally getting my ass kicked by whichever parolee was angry at me that day. I think it was part of their master plan, which was: there\u2019s a world of cool opportunities out there for you, but let\u2019s build with the new license not just work ethic, but also, a little kick and asked about why you don\u2019t want to end up in one of those real jobs\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n TIM: you have the introduction to the god brother, for the lobbying. Did your parents also helped organize the sour part of each summer?<\/p>\n\n\n\n CHRIS: the guy who ran the construction company is my dad\u2019s best friend, and he was under strict orders to make sure we have the roughest day there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Good stories always beat good spreadsheets<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether you are raising money, pitching your product to company customers, selling the company, recruiting employees, never forget that underneath all the math in the MBA bullshit talk, we are all still emotionally driven human beings. We want to attach ourselves to narratives. We don\u2019t act because of equations. We follow our beliefs. We get behind leaders who stir our feelings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you could bring one thing to make for an amazing party night, its wigs, seriously the Amazon right now in order 50 mullet wigs. Mullet wigs will exchange everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n How does Mark look for new opportunities? He has dozens of tools, but one of his heuristics is simple: \u201cWe call our test \u2018what do the nerds do on nights and weekends?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Where can you create a \u201dred team\u201d in your life to stress test your most treasured beliefs? See Samy Kamar, Stan McCrystal, and Jocko Willink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Two to rules to live by<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Mark and I are both huge fans of Steve Martin\u2019s autobiography, born standing up: a comics life. Mark highlighted one take away: he says the key to success is, \u201cbe so good they can\u2019t ignore you.\u201d Mark has another guiding tenant: \u201csmart people should make things.\u201d If you just have those two principles\u2013 that\u2019s a pretty good way to orient.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Don\u2019t overestimate the people on pedestals<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cGet inside the heads of people who made things in the past and what they were actually like, and then realize that they\u2019re not that different from you. At the time they got started, they were kind of just like you\u2026 so there\u2019s nothing stopping any of the rest of us from doing the same thing\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n TIM: both Mark and Brian Chesky, CEO of Airbnb, have read and recommended Neal Gabler\u2019s biography of Walt Disney. Mark also mentioned the Steve Jobs quote in our conversation, which is printed in full below. It was recorded in the 1995 interview conducted by the Santa Clara Valley historical Association, while Jobs is still up NeXT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c Life can be much broader, once you discover one simple fact, and that is that everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you.

Then I would go to the guy and say \u201cit\u2019s $5000\u201d and the guy will be in a state of shock. He\u2019d say \u201cit\u2019s $5000?

Yeah, sure, whatever. You can have the toys.\u201d That was a multibillion-dollar mistake they gave Lucas infinite financing for life (8,000,000,000 units sold to date). When deal making, ask yourself: can I trade a short-term, incremental gain for potential longer-term, game changing upside? Is there an element here that might be far more valuable in 5 to 10 years (e.g. e-book rights 10 years ago)? Might derby rights or options I can explicitly \u201dCarve out\u201d and keep? If you can cap the downside (time, capital, etc.) and have the confidence, take uncrowded bets on yourself.

They get frustrated that the world wants them to pick one thing, because they want to do them all: \u201cwhy do I have to choose? I don\u2019t know what to choose!\u201d But the problem is, if you\u2019re thinking short term, then you act as though if you don\u2019t do them all this week, they won\u2019t happen. The solution is to think long-term. Two realize that you can do one of these things for a few years, and then do another one for a few years, and then another. You\u2019ve probably heard the fable, I think it\u2019s Burdian\u2019s ass, about a donkey who is standing halfway between the pile of hay and a bucket of water. He just keeps looking left of the hay, and right to the water, trying to decide. Hay or water, hay or water? He\u2019s unable to decide, so he eventually falls over and dies in both hunger and thirst. A Donkey can\u2019t think of the future. If he did, he\u2019d realize he could clearly go first to drink the water, and then go get the hay. So my advice to my 30-year-old self is, don\u2019t be a donkey. You can do everything you want to do, you just need foresight inpatient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Treat life as a series of experiments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n My recommendation is to do little test. Try living a few months of the life you think you want, believe yourself next to the plan, being open to the big chance that you might not like it after training\u2026 The best book about this subject is stumbling on happiness<\/em> by Daniel Gilbert.

He was given a summons from a New York city police officer for riding his bike outside of the bike Lane, which isn\u2019t an actual infraction. Instead of going to court, fighting the $50 summons, and wasting half the day in the process, Casey redirected his anger and made a movie that expressed his frustration in a clever way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Casey begins the movie by repeating what the cop pulled him: he has to stay in the bike lane for safety and legal reasons, no matter what. Casey proceeds to ride his bike around NYC, crashing into everything that is in the bike lanes preventing people from following this rule. The film\u2019s grand finale is Casey crashing into police car that was truly parked in the middle of a bike lane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This movie went tremendously viral and was seen around 5 million times in its first aid. At one point, Mayor Bloomberg had to respond to question about the video in the press conference.

The catalyst: you build a successful career in advertising by 2011 but was extremely bored. He was in the middle of the three commercial deal with Nike: \u201dThe first two movies were right down the line, what you expect. I had a big, huge, $100-million athletes in them. They were very well received. I love making them. But when it came time to make the third movie, I was really burned out from the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the ninth hour, I called up my editor and said, \u201chey let\u2019s not make this advertisement. Instead, let\u2019s do something I\u2019ve always wanted to do, which is: let\u2019s take the entire production budget and travel the world into we run out of money, and we will record that. We\u2019ll make some sort of movie about that.\u201d And he said, \u201cyou\u2019re crazy, but sure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Make It Count<\/em> video literally opens was scrolling text that says, \u201cNike asked me to make a movie about what it means to make it count. Instead of making a movie, I spent the entire budget traveling around the world with my friend Max. we keep going until the money ran out. It took 10 days.\u201d They covered 15 countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Make It Count <\/em>became a video about chasing what matters to you. This was the entire message and the point of the campaign to begin with. Make it count ended up being Nikes most watched video on the Internet for several years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n TIM: <\/strong>how can you make your bucket list dreams pay for themselves by sharing them? This is, in effect, how I\u2019ve crafted my entire career since 2004.

And actually, in fact, part of doing strategy is to solve the easiest problem, the part of the reason why you work on software and bits is that atoms (physical products) are actually very difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n So if you\u2019re planning to do something with your life, if you have a 10 year plan how to get there, you should ask: why can\u2019t you do this in six months?<\/p>\n\n\n\n TIM: Peter will also sometimes ask potential hires, \u201dwhat problem do you face every day that nobody has solved yet?\u201d Or \u201cwhat is a great company no one has started?\u201d I will sometimes pose a bastardized version of his \u201csomething few people agree with you on\u201d question to podcast guests: \u201cwhat do you believe that other people think it\u2019s insane?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Every toy company in America was mean to her, and rejected her, and nothing to do with her. I said: \u201cLynn, it\u2019s simple. Toy companies don\u2019t like toy designers. They\u2019re not organized to do business with toy designers. They\u2019re not hoping toy designers will come to them.\u201d I said, \u201ccome with me into the book business. Because every day, there\u2019re underpaid really smart people in the book business to wake up waiting for the next idea to come across her desk. They are eager to buy what you have to sell.\u201d And within two months, she did the 52 activity decks and ultimately sold more than 5 million decks of cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Parenting Advice: <\/strong>what could possibly be more important to you than your kid? Please don\u2019t play the busy card. If you spend two hours a day without electronic device, looking your kid in the eye, talking to them in solving interesting problems, you will raise a different kid than someone who doesn\u2019t do that. That\u2019s one of the reasons why I cook dinner every night. Because what a wonderful semi-distracted environment in which the cake tell you the truth. For you to have low stakes but super important conversations with someone who\u2019s important to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ON education and teaching kids: <\/strong>sooner or later, parents have to take responsibility for putting her kids into a system that is indebting them and teaching them to be in an economy that doesn\u2019t want cogs anymore. Parents get to decide\u2026 And from 3 PM to to 10 PM those kids are getting homeschooled. And they\u2019re either getting home school and watching the Flintstones, or they\u2019re getting homeschooled and learning something useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I think we need to teach kids two things: 1) how to lead, and 2) how to solve interesting problems. Because the fact is, there\u2019re plenty of countries on her for there are people who are willing to be obedient and work harder for less money than us. So we cannot out of obedience the competition. Therefore, we have to out-lead or out-solve all the other people\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n the way you teach your kids to solve interesting problems is to give them interesting problems to solve. And then, don\u2019t criticize them when they fail. Because kids aren\u2019t stupid. If they get in trouble every time they try to solve an interesting problem, I\u2019ll just go back to getting an A by memorizing what\u2019s in the textbook. I spent an enormous amount of time with kids\u2026 I think that it\u2019s a privilege to be able to look interesting, energetic, smart 11 year-old in the eye and tell him the truth. And what can we say to that 11-year-old is: \u201cI really don\u2019t care how you did on your vocabulary test. I care about whether you have something to say.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just Kids <\/em>by Patti Smith: \u201cThis is the single best audiobook ever recorded by Patti Smith.

I have a doctors appointment that day. I\u2019m really sick. I broke my leg over the weekend\u201d or something.

Winners have systems.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Naval Ravikant regularly credit Scott\u2019s short blog post \u2018The Day You Became a Better Writer\u201d for improving his writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Systems vs Goals. <\/strong>Scott helped me refocus, to use his language, \u201c systems\u201d instead of \u201cgoals.\u201d This involves choosing projects and habits that, even if they result in \u201c\u201dfailures\u201d in the eyes of the outside world, give you transferable skills or relationships. In other words, you choose options that allow you to inevitably \u201dsucceed\u201d overtime, as you build assets that carry over to subsequent projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fundamentally, \u201dsystems\u201d could be thought of as asking yourself, \u201cwhat persistent skills or relationships can I develop?\u201d Versus \u201cwhat short-term goal can I achieve?\u201d The former has a potent snowball effect, while the latter is a binary pass\\Fail with no consolation prize. Scott writes about this extensively in his book: how to fail at almost everything in Stillwind big : kind of the story of my life.<\/em> Here\u2019s one real world example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhen I first started blogging, my future wife often asked by what my goal was. The blog and seem to double my workload while promising a 5% higher income that didn\u2019t make any real difference in my life. It seemed silly use of time. I tried to explain that blogging was the system, not a goal. But I never did a good job of it. I\u2019ll try again here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Writing is a skill that requires practice. So the first part of my system that involves practicing on a regular basis. I didn\u2019t know what I was practicing for, exactly, and that\u2019s what makes it to system is not a goal. I was moving from a place with low odds ( being out of practice writer) to a place of good odds (a well-practiced writer with higher visibility).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The second part of my blogging system is sort of an R&D for writing. I write on a variety of topics and see which ones get the best response. I also write in different quote \u201cvoices.\u201d I have my humorous least self-deprecating voice, my analytical voice, my half-crazy voice, my offensive voice, and so on. Readers do a good job of telling me what works and what doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When the Wall Street Journal took notice of my blog posts, they asked me to write some guest features. Thanks to all of my writing practice, and my knowledge of which topics got the best response, the guest articles are highly popular. Those articles weren\u2019t big money makers either, but it all fit within my system of public practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Writing for the Wall Street Journal, along with my public practice on the blog, attracted the attention of book publishers, and that attention turns into a book deal. In the book deal generated speaking requests are embarrassing leaves lucrative. So the payday for blogging eventually arrived, but I didn\u2019t know in advance which path it would take. My blogging has kicked up dozens of business opportunities over the past years, so it could\u2019ve taken any direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The logic of the double or triple threat.<\/strong> If you want an average, successful life, it doesn\u2019t take much planning. Just stay out of trouble, go to school, and apply for jobs you might like. But if you want something extraordinary, you have two paths: 1) become the best at one specific thing or 2) become very good (top 25%) of two or more things. The first strategy is difficult to the point of near impossibility. Few people will ever play in the NBA or make a platinum album. I don\u2019t recommend anyone even try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The second strategy is fairly easy. Everyone has at least a few areas in which they could be the top 25% with some effort. In my case, I can draw better than most people, but I\u2019m hardly an artist. And I\u2019m not any funnier than the average standup comedian who never makes a big, but I\u2019m funnier than most people. The magic is that few people can draw well and write jokes. It\u2019s a the two that makes what I do so rare. And when you add in my business background, suddenly I had a topic that few cartoonist could hope to understand without living it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I always advise young people to become good public speakers (top 25%). Anyone can do it with practice. If you have that talent to any other, suddenly you\u2019re the boss of the people who have only one skill. Or get a degree in business on top of her engineering degree, a law degree, medical degree, science degree, or whatever. Suddenly you\u2019re in charge, or maybe you\u2019re starting around company using your combined knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Capitalism rewards things that are both rare and valuable. You make yourself rare by combining two or more \u201cpretty goods\u201d until no one else has your mix\u2026 at least one of the skills in your mixture should involve communication, either written or verbal. And it could be as simple as learning how to sell more effectively than 75% of the world. That\u2019s one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ON being an outlier: <\/strong>sometimes, being outside of the known hotspots is a huge advantage\u2013 something Malcolm Gladwell explores in his book outliers.

If you spend your time focusing on the things that are wrong, and that\u2019s what you expressed a project of people you know, you don\u2019t become a source of growth for people, you become the source of destruction for people.

Or, on a personal level, as Jerry Colonna, executive coach to some of the biggest tech stars and silicon valley, would ask: \u201chow are you complicit in creating the conditions you say you don\u2019t want?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The most interesting jobs are the ones that you make up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cif you had $100 million, what would you build that would have no value to others in copying?\u201d <\/strong>Gabe Newell, the billionaire cofounder a video game development and distribution company Valve, has largely funded Chris\u2019s company ChefSteps. He\u2019s been a huge supporter, but only after asking questions that stretch Chris\u2019s brain: it goes, \u201dif I give you $100 million, what would you guys go build? That by building, there\u2019s no value for anyone copying?\u201d I’ll give you an example. When Intel goes to build the new chip fabricator, it’s billions and billions of dollars, and there’s no value in it anybody else copying it, because not only do they have to spend even more billions to catch up, but they have to spend more billions torn everything else until knows about this, and then they have to be 10 times better for anyone to want to switch. So just a waste of everyone\u2019s time to attempt copying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That wasn\u2019t the standard, and you know what the standard is. Hold the standard. Asked for help. Fix it. Do whatever is necessary. But don\u2019t cheat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first thing is, on a good day, I will try to step back and say, \u201dwhat context does this person even have, and have I provided appropriate context?\u201d \u2026.
