This episode is a rare exception to the rule — unlike my usual
long-form interviews, this is a drunk-dialing Q&A with you
guys, which I’ve done a few times in the last few years,
including for the celebration of the 100th episode of
this podcast. In preparation for this episode, I solicited phone
numbers from listeners who wanted to receive a call from me, and
then I started drinking and dialing, answering questions and
getting a little frisky along the way.
This time, I came in hot, starting after a few preliminary drinks
with friends on a weekend — so it's double trouble.
I ended up covering topics including:
How to reassess existing projects, specifically ones which
you've put a lot of capital and time into, using 80/20 analysis
and other tools.
How to learn to care less about what people think, social
perception, and how to minimize herd mentality.
A framework for thinking about entrepreneurship, risk-taking,
and how to cut your teeth as a business builder or creator.
How to learn to ask better questions, whether in dating or
sales.
How to let the silence do the work.
And so much more!
Please enjoy this tequila-fueled Q&A!
This episode is brought to you by
LinkedIn and its job recruitment platform, which
offers a smarter system for the hiring process. If you've ever
hired anyone (or attempted to), you know finding the right people
can be difficult. If you don't have a direct referral from
someone you trust, you're left to use job boards that don't offer
any real-world networking approach.
LinkedIn, as the world's largest professional
network — used by more than 70 percent of the US workforce — has
a built-in ecosystem that allows you to not only search for
employees, but also interact with them, their connections, and
their former employers and colleagues in a way that closely
mimics real-life communication. Visit
LinkedIn.com/Tim and receive $50 off

This podcast is also brought to you
by 99designs, the
world’s largest marketplace of graphic designers. I have
used them for years to create some amazing designs. Whether your
business needs a logo, website design, business card, or anything
you can imagine, check out 99designs.
I used them to rapid prototype the cover for The
Tao of Seneca, and I’ve also had them help with display
advertising and illustrations. If you want a more personalized
approach, I recommend their 1-on-1 service. You get original
designs from designers around the world. The best part? You
provide your feedback, and then you end up with a product that
you’re happy with or your money back. Click this
