Welcome to another episode of The Tim Ferriss Show! It will showcase some of my favorite advice and profiles from the audiobook of <a href="http://audible.com/ferriss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tools of Titans</a>. Thousands of you have asked for years for the audiobook versions of <a href="http://audible.com/ferriss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tools of Titans</a> and <a href="http://audible.com/ferriss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tribe of Mentors</a>, and they are now available. Go to <a href="http://audible.com/ferriss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">audible.com/ferriss</a> for more details or to download.&nbsp;Today’s episode will focus on <a href="http://audible.com/ferriss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tools of Titans </a>and features the introduction of the book, as well as the profiles of <a href="https://tim.blog/2015/12/14/derek-sivers-on-developing-confidence-finding-happiness-and-saying-no-to-millions/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Derek Sivers</a>, <a href="https://tim.blog/2016/04/14/bj-miller/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">BJ Miller</a>, and <a href="https://tim.blog/2016/05/09/the-secrets-of-gymnastic-strength-training/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Christopher Sommer</a>.Just a few notes on the audiobook's format: I recorded the introduction and selected three fantastic, top-ranked narrators to handle the rest, along with some surprise appearances from friends.&nbsp;The short bios, which you will hear at the beginning of each profile, are read by Kaleo Griffith. Ray Porter reads the bulk of each profile including all of my own words. Ray actually narrated my first book, <a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/The-4-Hour-Workweek-Escape-9-5-Live-Anywhere-and-Join-the-New-Rich-Expanded-and-Updated-Audiobook/B0031AS3BE?ref=a_ep_TimsBo_c13_lProduct_1_1&pf_rd_p=15162589-408b-4cb0-9ff3-0a3184f550d7&pf_rd_r=7VEFMEAEANNZYGE9MDZP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The 4-Hour Workweek</a>, and did an incredible job. Quotations from female guests are read by the wonderful Thérèse Plummer.The audiobook of <a href="http://audible.com/ferriss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tools of Titans </a>contains the distilled tools and routines I’ve gathered after interviewing hundreds of world-class performers.&nbsp;Everything has been vetted and applied to my own life in some fashion. The techniques, strategies, and philosophies in <a href="http://audible.com/ferriss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tools of Titans</a> have made me more effective, saved me years of wasted effort and frustration, and helped me navigate many periods of darkness and uncertainty. The advice has truly made me a happier, healthier person and changed my life. I hope that they help change yours as well.&nbsp;Please enjoy this episode, and if you’d like to listen to the other 100-plus profiles and chapters from <a href="http://audible.com/ferriss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tools of Titans</a>, just head to <a href="http://audible.com/ferriss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">audible.com/ferriss</a>.***If you enjoy the podcast, would you please consider&nbsp;<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-tim-ferriss-show/id863897795?mt=2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">leaving a short&nbsp;review&nbsp;on Apple Podcasts</a>/iTunes?&nbsp;It takes less than 60 seconds, and it really makes a difference in helping to convince hard-to-get guests.For show notes and past guests, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://tim.blog/podcast/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=podcast-description" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">tim.blog/podcast</a>.Sign up for Tim’s email newsletter (“5-Bullet Friday”) at&nbsp;<a href="https://go.tim.blog/5-bullet-friday-1/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">tim.blog/friday</a>.For transcripts of episodes, go to&nbsp;<a href="http://tim.blog/transcripts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">tim.blog/transcripts</a>.Interested in sponsoring the podcast?
