    Why does 4 Hour Workweek get no love around here

    BOOKS 
    @jcvlds I have to disagree with you there. 4HWW didn't discuss control at all. Before starting his podcast, Ferriss didn't have much control in his own business. He didn't own the copyrights to 4HWW or 4HBody. And likely still doesn't. So, the publishers had the control. 4H Chef failed (in...

    The master key to changing habits and behavior for good.

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    @ChrisV I think you and I disagree because we have different beliefs. I believe ACT (an offshoot of CBT) is more effective than CBT. No need to debate them. It's like debating Christianity and Judaism. I love the book Drive. It's the book that actually got me off of the Skinner bandwagon. I...

    The master key to changing habits and behavior for good.

    @ChrisV You seem to be getting very emotional about this post. I am not attacking you. I disagree with you. People are allowed to disagree. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe you're wrong. Maybe we are both wrong. In my opinion, the entire field of behavioral economics has proven that Skinner's beliefs...

    Why does 4 Hour Workweek get no love around here

    BOOKS 
    There have been many successful muses created from people who have read 4HWW. There's a whole book about them: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06Y4V1L9D/?tag=tff-amazonparser-20 But, there are likely many more failures. It's probably because 4HWW addresses the NTS of CENTS, but neglects the CE.

    Why does 4 Hour Workweek get no love around here

    BOOKS 
    I love Tim Ferriss. I've read the all five books. I listen to the podcast. But, a Productocracy trumps a Muse. All Productocracies are Muses, but not all Muses are Productocracies. 4HWW seems to attract a lot of Infopreneurs selling hope and abusing persuasion techniques. TMF is actually...

    Investing My Hard Earned $$

    INVESTING 
    I'm no expert, but you may want to look into real estate investing to decrease your tax burden. I understand that you don't want to max out a 401k because you want access to your money. But, it wouldn't hurt that bad to max out a Traditional IRA. Your business is profiting $68k a month. $5.5k...

    @Ayanle Farah The Mini Habits and Tiny Habits strategies can work as well because they execution so easy. And the feedback loop can start. But, even Mini/Tiny Habit strategies can be improves with stakes and/or accountability.

    @ChrisV I read your article and your logic is sound, but your strategy is not practical. Your strategy assumes that humans are rational. But, the truth is, we are all delusional and irrational. People aren't persuaded by facts and logic. People are persuaded by many other things including...

    Entrepreneur Movies

    OFF-TOPIC 
    The things that have held me back in business and entrepreneurship are lack of belief, self-doubt, and fear. So, my favorites would be the first Matrix movie and the original Star Wars trilogy. Especially Episode V. The below scene is constant inspiration for me: View...

    The Strangest Secret by Earl Nightingale - Fastlane philosophy in 1957

    MINDSET 
    I love Nightingale. I listen to the Strangest Secret on YouTube all the time. My favorite line is "Men simply don't think." It's so true. Everybody is walking around on autopilot. I also love his abridged version of Think and Grow Rich. It's equally powerful...

    Dude!!! You're killing it financially. You are living the American Dream. Kudos and applause. Is your name Ward? Are you married to June? Are your sons named Wallace and Theodore? Are their nicknames Wally and The Beaver? You're so young, you probably don't know what I'm referring to. But...

    Caffeine can kill your productivity!

    HOT! HEALTH 
    Great thread. I honestly drink a venti ice coffee with heavy cream from Starbucks every morning for breakfast. Sometimes, I'll put a tablespoon of MCT coconut oil in it. It's my equivalent to buttered coffee. But, I'd like to quit. Iced coffee has more caffeine than hot coffee. With the amount...
