Three Things Tim Ferriss Tries To Ask Himself Daily
Tim Ferriss says he tries to ask himself these three questions every day:
- What is the one constraint, if removed that would make me 5-10-20 times more productive in your personal and professional life?
- If I had to do this in 15 minutes, what would I do?
- What is the downside if I lose the person for 3 months, 6 months, forever?
The Pessimist, The Optimist, And The Realist
“But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live. Chained by his servitude, he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom. Only a person who risks is free. The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; and the realist adjusts the sails.” — William Arthur Ward.
