Business. Self-Improvement. Nonfiction. HTML:The latest groundbreaking tome from Tim Ferriss, the #1 New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek.

From the author:
/>
"For the last two years, I've interviewed more than 200 world-class performers for my podcast, The Tim Ferriss Show. The guests range from super celebs (Jamie Foxx, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.) and athletes (icons of powerlifting, gymnastics, surfing, etc.) to legendary Special Operations commanders and black-market biochemists. For most of my guests, it's the first time they've agreed to a two-to-three-hour interview. This unusual depth has helped make The Tim Ferriss Show the first business/interview podcast to pass 100 million downloads.

"This book contains the distilled tools, tactics, and 'inside baseball' you won't find anywhere else. It also includes new tips from past guests, and life lessons from new 'guests' you haven't met.

"What makes the show different is a relentless focus on actionable details. This is reflected in the questions. For example: What do these people do in the first sixty minutes of each morning? What do their workout routines look like, and why? What books have they gifted most to other people? What are the biggest wastes of time for novices in their field? What supplements do they take on a daily basis?

"I don't view myself as an interviewer. I view myself as an experimenter. If I can't test something and replicate results in the messy reality of everyday life, I'm not interested.

"Everything within these pages has been vetted, explored, and applied to my own life in some fashion. I've used dozens of the tactics and philosophies in high-stakes negotiations, high-risk environments, or large business dealings. The lessons have made me millions of dollars and saved me years of wasted effort and frustration.

"I created this book, my ultimate notebook of high-leverage tools, for myself. It's changed my life, and I hope the same for you.".… (altro)

This is a big one! It's chock full of great thoughts, processes, ideas and more from Tim Ferriss' interviews with all sorts of "elites". There are a ton of things that I could see myself using and lots of books and websites I'm going to research. There's also a LOT of stuff in here I would just never do. But we're all different ... what works for me might not work for you. Definitely worth picking up and browsing through.

Ferriss has broken the book into three sections: Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise. So pick the section that pertains most to your needs and start reading. I sat down and read through the whole thing, front to back. Probably a little too much all at once. ( )

For the most part, I really enjoyed this book. I found it compulsively readable, engaging, and, at times, fascinating. I highlighted a ton of content, and scribbled in my notebook often while reading.

Some profiles were more interesting and applicable than others (my eyes glossed over much of the first third of the book, which dealt with everything from psychedelics to performance-enhancing pills, neither of which are things I want in my body, no matter how much these "top performers" extoll their virtues).

The best part of the book, by far, is its tremendously practical application - especially in the areas of business, productivity, and mindset. Much of the advice is down-to-earth and instantly applicable. But just like any other resource chock-full of a variety of information from a variety of sources, it works best when you can take what seems meaningful and relevant to you, and leave the rest. ( )

For some reason I feel compelled to explain myself here. Mixed feelings on this book. It is 33% absolute bullshit, 33% hmm maybe that is good advice especially if you are a well off Silicon Valley Tech Bro with lots of time/money/fame, and 33% genuinely good advice from some smart people. I got enough actionable items from it that it squeaked out a three star rating. Highlights for me were Robert Rodriguez, Kevin Kelly, Marc Andreessen, Jamie Foxx, and Tony Robbins (surprisingly). Lowlights are pretty low, Peter Thiel, Kevin Rose, Scott Adams, and Noah Kagan. I would not recommend this book for most people, but if you are a productivity/self-improvement/quantified self nerd and you can stomach tech-bros, then give it a shot. ( )

way too much information ( )
  mullerd | Mar 13, 2022 |
I've never been a Tim Ferris fan, but this book still surprised me in how bad it was. (Disclaimer: I only listened to the blinkist summary and read a couple chapters, but saw no reason to read any more)

This felt like he outsourced "write a generic advice book" to someone sourced from the Internet for $5/hr. It was really generic advice motivated with questionable examples. Skip.
