    The 2 Types of Knowledge: Real vs. Surface

    In 1918, German theoretical physicist Max Planck won the Nobel Prize for his discovery of energy quanta. After winning the prize, he went on a tour, giving lectures at universities and institutions around the country on his findings. There’s an apocryphal story from that tour that I first came across while reading the transcript of Charlie Munger’s 2007 commencement speech at USC Law School. Max Planck’s chauffeur, after having heard Planck practice and deliver the talk so many times, had the entire thing memorized. He jokingly asked Planck if he could deliver it at the final lecture. Surprisingly, the physicist agreed... ••• This episode brought to you by: DeleteMe - DeleteMe makes it quick, easy, and safe to remove your personal data online. Origin Financial - Your personal AI Financial Advisor.

    Winner's Game vs. Loser's Game

    "No unforced errors." At a recent speaking event, I was asked by an audience member to share one piece of advice I wish I could tell my younger self. Specifically, they asked for the non-obvious advice I've found most difficult to internalize and live by, despite knowing its importance. My response: No unforced errors. Three words. And I've spent years learning why they're so hard to live by... ••• This episode brought to you by: DeleteMe - DeleteMe makes it quick, easy, and safe to remove your personal data online. Origin Financial - Your personal AI Financial Advisor.

    The 4 Types of Professional Time

    Most people end the day exhausted but can't point to a single thing they meaningfully moved forward. The problem isn't how much you're working -- it's the type of work filling your hours. In this piece, I break down a simple framework that fundamentally changed how I work: The Four Types of Professional Time... ••• This episode brought to you by: DeleteMe - DeleteMe makes it quick, easy, and safe to remove your personal data online. Origin Financial - Your personal AI Financial Advisor.

    The Goal Gradient Hypothesis

    105.5. That's how many laps you have to run around the first lane of a regulation outdoor track to cover the 26.2 miles of a marathon. And, when I arrived at my local high school track last Friday at 4:45am, that was exactly what I planned to do. I wish I had a thoughtful answer to the obvious "um, why?" this opener no doubt sparks in your mind. The truth is that every now and then, I like to remind myself that I've still got that edge—that "dog" inside me. That I can take on something intimidating and get it done. Plus, I talk a lot about discipline, grit, and consistency around here. But my rule is that you can’t talk about it if you’re not going to be about it. If there's one thing you can always trust with me, it's this: If I say something, I’ve got receipts to prove that I live by it. So, there I was, standing alone on the track, in the pre-dawn darkness, with 105.5 laps to go... ••• This episode brought to you by: DeleteMe - DeleteMe makes it quick, easy, and safe to remove your personal data online. Origin Financial - Your personal AI Financial Advisor.

    The ABC Goal System

    "Just be consistent." By now, you've undoubtedly heard this advice countless times. So much so that it may even induce an eye roll or sigh. Yes, it’s true, consistency is the difference maker. The common thread behind every major success story. Everyone tells you to be consistent, but no one ever tells you how to be consistent. And let’s be honest, it’s (much) easier said than done. Life gets chaotic. Motivation fades. Discipline wavers. Consistency breaks. I've personally spent thousands of hours wrestling with this exact problem—and I've developed my own ultra-simple approach that works: I call it my ABC Goal System… ••• This episode brought to you by: DeleteMe - DeleteMe makes it quick, easy, and safe to remove your personal data online. Origin Financial - Your personal AI Financial Advisor.

    The Pratfall Effect

    In 1966, a University of Texas psychologist named Elliot Aronson ran an experiment to examine the role of imperfection on human connection. Aronson recruited 48 college students and had them listen to an audio recording of a candidate supposedly auditioning to be on a "College Quiz Bowl" team (a popular TV format at the time). The recordings were, in fact, staged. The candidate was just an actor working from a script. But the participants believed they were real and that they would be helping evaluate the candidate. The results were fascinating... ••• This episode brought to you by: DeleteMe - DeleteMe makes it quick, easy, and safe to remove your personal data online. Origin Financial - Your personal AI Financial Advisor.

    5 Life Learnings From 5 Years of The Curiosity Chronicle

    A few days ago, I was reminded by a reader that May 14 was the five year anniversary of my first Curiosity Chronicle newsletter. Sending that first newsletter, which went out to a few thousand people who had been receiving my tweet threads in email format each week, felt like something of a leap of faith at the time. Fast forward five years and what started with that tiny leap of faith has compounded into something beautiful. I began reflecting on what I've learned through the five years of writing The Curiosity Chronicle and quickly realized that all of it applies well-beyond the bounds of creative pursuits and into any meaningful endeavor in life. I hope these life learnings help you turn your tiny leap of faith into something beautiful... ••• This episode brought to you by: DeleteMe - DeleteMe makes it quick, easy, and safe to remove your personal data online. Origin Financial - Your personal AI Financial Advisor.

    The Eject Button Mentality

    In 2002, Harvard psychologists Daniel Gilbert and Jane Ebert designed a series of studies to test the role of optionality on happiness and human satisfaction. In the first study, the students in a Harvard photography class were asked to make prints of their two favorite photos from the semester. After creating the two prints, they were told to select one that they would get to keep, while the other would be filed in the department archives. But at this stage, the students were split into two groups: The first group was told that the decision was final. Whichever print they selected was their print and they couldn’t change their mind.The second group was told that the decision was reversible. They could change their mind and swap prints in the next few days.In the days that followed, the two groups of students were asked how satisfied they were with their selection, both during the swap window and after it had passed. The findings were counterintuitive... ••• This episode brought to you by: DeleteMe - DeleteMe makes it quick, easy, and safe to remove your personal data online. Origin Financial - Your personal AI Financial Advisor.
