#471: Adam Grant — How to Remember Anything
Adam Grant — How to Remember Anything | Brought to you by " [5-Bullet Friday] (https://go.tim.blog/5-bullet-friday-1/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=podcast-sponsorship) "
Please enjoy this special episode of [The Tim Ferriss Show] (https://tim.blog/podcast/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=podcast-description) , featuring the superhuman Adam Grant ( [@AdamMGrant] (https://twitter.com/AdamMGrant/) ) and his podcast with TED, [WorkLife] (https://www.ted.com/podcasts/worklife) .
Many of you have heard my interview with Adam, which was one of the most popular interviews of 2019. I titled that podcast “ [The Man Who Does Everything] (https://tim.blog/2019/12/05/adam-grant/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=podcast-description) ” because Adam seems to accomplish more than the next 10 people combined, and he has built systems and habits that allow him to do this.
Adam is an expert in how we can find motivation and meaning, and lead more generous and creative lives. He is an organizational psychologist at Wharton, where he has been the top-rated professor for seven straight years. He is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of four books that have been translated into 35 languages: [Give and Take] (https://www.amazon.com/Give-Take-Helping-Others-Success/dp/0143124986/ref=as_li_ss_tl?keywords=adam+grant&qid=1575415508&sr=8-1&linkCode=ll1&tag=offsitoftimfe-20&linkId=efd03886b41361aca527f01557c591f7&language=en_US) , [Originals] (https://www.amazon.com/Originals-How-Non-Conformists-Move-World/dp/B01A7Q61LI/?tag=offsitoftimfe-20) , [Option B] (https://www.amazon.com/Option-Adversity-Building-Resilience-Finding/dp/1524732680/ref=as_li_ss_tl?keywords=adam+grant&qid=1575415508&sr=8-5&linkCode=ll1&tag=offsitoftimfe-20&linkId=0acddfd50299d8a765a45761089e285b&language=en_US) , and [Power Moves] (https://www.amazon.com/Power-Moves-Lessons-from-Davos/dp/B07H4WPSS2/ref=as_li_ss_tl?keywords=adam+grant&qid=1575415508&sr=8-4&linkCode=ll1&tag=offsitoftimfe-20&linkId=d78eb3e3bd83cdcfb71027691400c7ad&language=en_US) . His TED talks have been viewed more than 20 million times. His speaking and consulting clients include Google, the NBA, and the Gates Foundation. He has been recognized as one of the world’s 10 most influential management thinkers, is one of Fortune’s 40 under 40, and a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader. He’s received distinguished scientific achievement awards from the American Psychological Association and the National Science Foundation. It goes on and on. The good news is that this isn’t all freakish genes and good luck; Adam uses uncommon tools and strategies for getting all of this done. You can find our previous episode about this at [tim.blog/adamgrant] (https://tim.blog/2019/12/05/adam-grant/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=podcast-description) .
In Adam’s [WorkLife] (https://www.ted.com/podcasts/worklife) podcast, he takes you inside the minds of some of the world’s most unusual professionals to explore the science of making work not suck; put another way, how do you make work actually work for you?
Adam and I share an intense interest in just how far—and easily—you can train your memory to do things that seem impossible, and I wanted to share with you an episode from Adam’s podcast titled “ [How to remember anything] (https://www.ted.com/talks/worklife_with_adam_grant_how_to_remember_anything/transcript) .” It is highly tactical.
One last thing—for legal reasons, we didn’t have the flexibility to remove any mid-roll ads, so... Accenture, this one’s on me.
Please enjoy the episode! You can subscribe to [WorkLife] (https://www.ted.com/podcasts/worklife) with Adam Grant wherever you get your podcasts.

“I don’t worry about inspiration as much as system overload.” — Dustin Yellin
Dustin Yellin ( [@dustinyellin] (https://www.instagram.com/dustinyellin/) )is an artist who lives in Brooklyn, New York, and is the founder and director of [Pioneer Works] (https://pioneerworks.org/) , a multidisciplinary cultural center in Red Hook, Brooklyn, that builds community through the arts and sciences to create an open and inspired world. He and his incredible work have been featured by media and organizations includingThe New York Times,Artforum,Vanity Fair, and TED.
Drawing on both modernism and the sacred tradition of Hinterglas painting, Yellin primarily works through a unique form of three-dimensional photomontage, in which paint and images clipped from various print media are embedded within laminated glass sheets to form grand pictographic allegories, which Dustin calls “frozen cinema.” These totemic and kaleidoscopic works often plumb the history and fate of human consciousness within the Anthropocene ( [see examples here] (https://dustinyellin.com/) ).
Dustin’s art has been exhibited at or with the Amorepacific Museum, Brooklyn Museum, City Museum, Colección Solo, Corning Museum of Glass, The Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Museo Del Palacio de Bellas Artes, SCAD Museum of Art, Tacoma Museum, and Creative Time, among many others. He holds an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree from the Savannah College of Art and Design.

#466: Richard Koch on Mastering the 80/20 Principle, Achieving Unreasonable Success, and The Art of ...
Richard Koch on Mastering the 80/20 Principle, Achieving Unreasonable Success, and The Art of Gambling | Brought to you by [Boll & Branch] (https://www.bollandbranch.com/) , [Vuori Clothing] (http://vuoriclothing.com/Tim) , and [Athletic Greens] (https://www.athleticgreens.com/tim) .
Richard Koch ( [@RichardKoch8020] (https://twitter.com/RichardKoch8020) ) is an entrepreneur, investor, former strategy consultant, and author of several books on business and ideas, including four on how to apply the 80/20 principle in all walks of life.
His investments have grown at 22 percent compounded annually over 37 years and have included Filofax, Plymouth Gin, Belgo, Betfair (the world’s largest betting exchange), FanDuel, and Auto1. He has worked for Boston Consulting Group and was a partner at Bain & Co. before joining Jim Lawrence and Iain Evans to start LEK, which expanded from three to 350 professionals during the six years Richard was there.
In 1997, Richard’s book [The 80/20 Principle] (https://www.amazon.com/80-20-Principle-Secret-Achieving/dp/0385491743/?tag=offsitoftimfe-20) reinterpreted the Pareto Rule, which states that most results come from a small minority of causes, and extended it beyond its well-known application in business into personal life, happiness, and success. The book, substantially updated in 2017, has sold more than a million copies, been translated into roughly 40 languages, and become a business classic. It was named by GQ magazine as one of the top 25 business books of all time.
His new book, [published on August 13, 2020] (https://richardkoch.net/books/607-unreasonable-success-and-how-to-achieve-it) , and available in the US in December, is [Unreasonable Success and How to Achieve it] (https://www.amazon.com/Unreasonable-Success-How-Achieve-Unlocking/dp/1642011363/?tag=offsitoftimfe-20) . In it, Richard charts a new map of success, which he says can propel anyone to new heights of accomplishment. High success, he says, does not require genius, consistency, all-round ability, a safe pair of hands, or even basic competence — but it does require the nine key attitudes and strategies he has identified.

#464: Tim Ferriss — My Healing Journey After Childhood Abuse
For me, this is the most important podcast episode I’ve ever published.
In it, I describe the most life-shaping, certainly the most difficult, and certainly the most transformative journey of my 43 years on this planet. I’ve never shared it before.
My dance partner and safety net in this conversation is my friend [Debbie Millman] (https://tim.blog/2017/01/12/how-to-design-a-life-debbie-millman/) ( [@debbiemillman] (https://twitter.com/debbiemillman?lang=en) ). She has been named one of the most creative people in business by Fast Company, and she is the host of [Design Matters] (https://www.designmattersmedia.com/designmatters) —a great show and one of the world’s longest running podcasts. She is also Chair of the Masters in Branding Program at the School of Visual Arts and Editorial Director of Print magazine, and she has worked on design strategy for some of the world’s largest brands.
But I didn’t ask Debbie to join me because of her bio. I asked Debbie because she’s a close confidante, she’s an excellent interviewer, and she’s been an incredible support for me in the last few years, including late-night emergency phone calls. She and I have also experienced similar trauma but have taken two *very* different paths to healing using *very* different tools. So, you get a two-for-one deal in this conversation.
All resources mentioned in this episode, and many more, are listed at [tim.blog/trauma] (http://tim.blog/trauma) .
And if you remember only one thing, please remember this: there is light on the other side. I wouldn’t have believed this even five years ago, but I now consider myself living proof that deep, lasting change is possible. Don’t give up. You are never alone, and it is never hopeless. I’m right there alongside you, as are millions of others.
Much love to you and yours,
Tim

Kelly Slater — The Surfing Legend on Routine, Rickson Gracie, Favorite Books, and Overcoming Setbacks | Brought to you by [Dry Farm Wines] (http://dryfarmwines.com/tim) , [Helix Sleep] (http://helixsleep.com/tim) , and [LMNT] (https://drinklmnt.com/tim) .
“When you’re humble, you’re teachable.” — Kelly Slater
Kelly Slater( [@kellyslater] (https://www.instagram.com/kellyslater/) ) is widely considered the greatest surfer of all time. He holds nearly every major record in the sport, including 11 world titles and 55 career victories. He also has the amazing distinction of being both the youngest and oldest world champion in men’s history. His most dominant days were the mid-’90s, when he won five straight titles between 1993 and 1998.
After topping Mark Richards’ previous record of four straight titles, Kelly tried his hand at retirement in 1999 but failed. He rejoined the tour full-time in 2002, and over the following five years faced his toughest rival in Hawaii’s Andy Irons, who got the better of him for three straight years. Their heated battles became the most compelling in the sport’s history, propelling it to new heights. Kelly finally reclaimed the title in 2005 and repeated in 2006. Kelly swapped titles with Mick Fanning in the years that followed.
Kelly will also be remembered for the wave pool technology that he and his team of engineers at [Kelly Slater Wave Co.] (http://www.kswaveco.com/) brought to life in 2015, which has the potential to reshape the surfing landscape for generations.

#458: The Psychedelic News Hour: New Breakthroughs, Compound Comparisons and Warnings (Psilocybin/LS...
The Psychedelic News Hour | | Brought to you by [How to Lead: Wisdom from the World's Greatest CEOs, Founders, and Game Changers] (https://www.amazon.com/How-Lead-Greatest-Founders-Changers/dp/1982132159/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=ll1&tag=offsitoftimfe-20&linkId=182d6e09391b416b08288a7bae52dcea&language=en_US) by David M. Rubenstein
Welcome to another episode of [The Tim Ferriss Show] (http://tim.blog/podcast?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=podcast-description) , where it is normally my job to deconstruct world-class performers of various types, of all ilks.
In this special episode, the tables are turned. Instead of interviewing someone else, I am interviewed by two experts on several topics I’ve both studied and supported, including psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy and what it can do to heal trauma and—broadly speaking—possible futures for mental health. This audio was recorded on a new show, [The Psychedelic News Hour] (http://www.thepsychedelicnewshour.com/) , soon to be a podcast, and I’m in conversation with two people: [David Rabin, MD, PhD,] (http://drdave.io/) ( [@drdavidrabin] (https://www.instagram.com/drdavidrabin/) ), a board-certified psychiatrist and neuroscientist, executive director of [The Board of Medicine] (http://boardofmedicine.org/) , and co-founder of [Apollo Neuroscience] (http://apolloneuro.com/) , and [Molly Maloof, MD,] (https://drmolly.co/) ( [@drmolly.co] (https://www.instagram.com/drmolly.co/) ), a physician, Stanford lecturer, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapist.
This episode was recorded on [Clubhouse] (http://joinclubhouse.com) , an app still in private beta and defined by their tagline: “Clubhouse is a space for casual, drop-in audio conversations—with friends and other interesting people around the world.”
One final note: I recorded this on my phone, a necessity for using the app, so the audio quality isn’t studio quality, but it was polished as much as possible. Thank you for understanding, and thanks to everyone who joined and asked thoughtful questions.
This episode is brought to you by the book [How to Lead] (https://www.amazon.com/How-Lead-Greatest-Founders-Changers/dp/1982132159/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=ll1&tag=offsitoftimfe-20&linkId=182d6e09391b416b08288a7bae52dcea&language=en_US) by David Rubenstein.David Rubenstein is one of the visionary founders of The Carlyle Group and host ofThe David Rubenstein Show, where he speaks to leaders from every walk of life about who they are, how they define "success," and what it means to lead. Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Phil Knight, Oprah — all of them and more — are featured in his new book, titled [How to Lead] (https://www.amazon.com/How-Lead-Greatest-Founders-Changers/dp/1982132159/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=ll1&tag=offsitoftimfe-20&linkId=182d6e09391b416b08288a7bae52dcea&language=en_US) . This comprehensive leadership playbook illustrates the principles and guiding philosophies of the world’s greatest game-changers. In its pages, you can discover the experts’ secrets to being effective and innovative leaders.
Past podcast guest Walter Isaacson had this to say: "Reading this invaluable trove of advice from the greatest leaders of our time is like sitting in an armchair and listening to the masters reveal their secrets.”Pick up a copy of [How to Lead: Wisdom from the World’s Greatest CEOs, Founders, and Game Changers] (https://www.amazon.com/How-Lead-Greatest-Founders-Changers/dp/1982132159/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=ll1&tag=offsitoftimfe-20&linkId=182d6e09391b416b08288a7bae52dcea&language=en_US) by David Rubinstein in hardcover, ebook, or audio anywhere books are sold.
