It was a very hard year as it was for many people.It was also a stark reminder that time is our scarcest non-renewable resource.With a renewed sense of urgency I began asking myself many questions:Were my goals my own or simply what I thought I should want?How much of life had I missed from underplanning or overplanning?How could I be kinder to myself?How could I better say no to the trivial many to better say yes to the critical few?How could I best reassess my priorities and my purpose in this world?To find answers I reached out to the most impressive world-class performers in the world ranging from wunderkinds in their 20s to icons in their 70s and 80s. No stone was left unturned.This book contains their answerspractical and tactical advice from mentors who have found solutions. Whether you want to 10x your results get unstuck or reinvent yourself someone else has traveled a similar path and taken notes.This book Tribe of Mentors  includes many of the people I grew up viewing as idols or demi-gods. Less than 10% have been on my podcast ( The Tim Ferriss Show  more than 200 million downloads) making this a brand-new playbook of playbooks.No matter your challenge or opportunity something in these pages can help.Among other things you will learn: More than 50 morning routinesboth for the early riser and those who struggle to get out of bed. How TED curator Chris Anderson realized that the best way to get things done is to let go. The best purchases of $100 or less (you'll never have to think about the right gift again).
