Josh Waitzkin is an endlessly fascinating person who gets
mentioned a lot on this show for good reason (and he's been a
guest not just once, but twice). He was the basis for the book
and movie Searching for Bobby Fischer. Considered a chess
prodigy, Josh has perfected learning strategies that can be
applied to anything, including his other loves of Brazilian
jiu-jitsu (he's a black belt under phenom Marcelo Garcia) and Tai
Chi push hands (he's a world champion). These days, he spends his
time coaching the world's top athletes and investors, working to
revolutionize education, and tackling his new passion for paddle
surfing (and nearly killing me in the process). I initially met
Josh through his incredible book, The Art of Learning, which I
loved so much that I helped produce the audiobook (download
here on Audible). This episode is a highlight reel of sorts
-- lessons I've learned from Josh and shared in my new book Tools
of Titans. Please enjoy! Show notes and links for this episode
can be found at www.fourhourworkweek.com/podcast. This podcast is
brought to you by Four Sigmatic. I reached out to these Finnish
entrepreneurs after a very talented acrobat introduced me to one
of their products, which blew my mind (in the best way possible).
It is mushroom coffee featuring chaga. It tastes like coffee, but
there are only 40 milligrams of caffeine, so it has less than
half of what you would find in a regular cup of coffee. I do not
get any jitters, acid reflux, or any type of stomach burn. It put
me on fire for an entire day, and I only had half of the packet.
People are always asking me what I use for cognitive enhancement
right now, this is the answer. You can try it right now by going
to foursigmatic.com/tim and using the code Tim to get 20 percent
off your first order. If you are in the experimental mindset, I
do not think you'll be disappointed. This podcast is also brought
to you by Wealthfront. Wealthfront is a massively disruptive
(in a good way) set-it-and-forget-it investing service led by
technologists from places like Apple. It has exploded in
popularity in the last two years and now has more than $2.5B
under management. Why? Because you can get services previously
limited to the ultra-wealthy and only pay pennies on the dollar
for them, and it's all through smarter software instead of retail
locations and bloated sales teams. Check out wealthfront.com/tim,
take their risk assessment quiz, which only takes 2-5 minutes,
and they'll show you for free the exact portfolio they'd put you
in. If you want to just take their advice and do it yourself, you
can. Well worth a few minutes to explore: wealthfront.com/tim.
