description: 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 Ive 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 its the first time theyve 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 wont find anywhere else. It also includes new tips from past guests and life lessons from new guests you havent 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 dont view myself as an interviewer. I view myself as an experimenter. If I cant test something and replicate results in the messy reality of everyday life Im not interested. Everything within these pages has been vetted explored and applied to my own life in some fashion. Ive 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. Its changed my life and I hope the same for you.
