Ingen Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. While I didn't like a lot of his business advice, which appears to be "make up a crap product and then seek rent on it for the rest of your life," the rest of this book is great. It feels like a spiritual relative of Sebastian Marshall's Ikigai --- reading this book will have you spending a lot of time pondering "hmm, what kind of life do I really want to live?" The answer for most people I've talked to is "not like this," but the fear gets in the way. This is a good book about getting over the fear. It's got helpful little exercises for comfort zone expansion, tactics for dealing with bureaucrats, strategies for building prestige, and lots more. And a lot of prompts for trying to figure out what you'd rather be doing, and for figuring out how to get there from here. The gist of all of it is that people don't really want to be millionaires, they want to have what they assume is the millionaire lifestyle. So computer how much money per day you'd actually need in order to live how you'd like, and then work towards that number. Waiting to live until you're too old to appreciate it is a crap strategy. I just finished reading The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich by Timothy Ferriss. What a fascinating book! I definitely recommend you read this if you are interested in getting some of your life back. Read more The book is not about cutting your workday in half but optimizing what you do with your time. Ferriss is his own lab rat experimenting with life and health to optimize results with a "minimal effective dose" of effort. His first book challenges the conventional view of the workday and how society defines success. Some ideas may seem quaint now because so many bloggers and thought leaders in social media have been greatly influenced by his work. The book is a guide to hacking work and life to optimize personal output and learning capability. His other works, The 4-Hour Body and The 4-Hour Chef continue the lifehacking philosophy of health and learning respectively (4HC is not a cookbook but a book about optimal learning while learning about food and cooking). The great value of 4HWW is the way "work" is broken apart and analyzed and, hopefully, reassembled into something better. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Tim Ferris is a wealth of ideas that don't stay anywhere near the proverbial "in the box" thinking. The first third was the best for me, with a lot of reframing of conformist ideas about work and how, when or where to do it. The rest is more for entrepreneurs. Lots of advice on how to start a business on the cheap and travel tips. I highlighted a lot in this book and have started listening to his podcast.
Recommended for: people who want to go beyond the comfort zone, are ambitious and/or want to get out there and live. (
