Click here.Show Notes: JamesSwanwick.com/186“Perfection is the enemy of productivity.” - James Swanwick(click to tweet)Most people think of the process of writing a book as some almost insurmountable mountain of work. Authors often glamorize the idea of closing themselves away for a year to write, wrestling the words onto the page. But it doesn’t have to be that way! In fact, I’m writing a book right now about how reduce or quit alcohol, using the process outlined in the book “Publish and Profit” by Mike Koenigs. The process is to mind-dump every topic in your area of expertise that you can, to eventually turn into chapters in your book. Then, simply turn on a recording device and simply talk about the subject for a bit! Then, get it transcribed, clean up the transcription and move things around if need be, and you have a chapter! Writing a book has a huge range of benefits for the author, and instantly turns the author into a perceived expert on the topic. But most people don’t write books, for any number of reasons. But using the specific steps outlined in this episode, you can get the bulk of the work done in a single weekend. So what are you waiting for? Write your book!

Click here.Show Notes: JamesSwanwick.com/185“Hustle can make up for lack of natural gifting, and is the one thing you control.” - Dan Ilic(click to tweet)Do you take time to look back and reflect on your success along the way? A lot of us, especially the type-A personalities, have a hard time dwelling on past success. Instead, who hone in on the failures, or the things that didn’t go the way we planned. We think that it’s helping us turn into more successful people by beating ourselves up for past failures, when in reality reviewing our success and where we’ve come from would be much better for our health and well-being! Today is a conversation with comic Dan Ilic, while we take a hike on Runyon Canyon, and the conversation hits on a lot of points. We talk about the importance of daily gratitude and the practicality of using a gratitude journal, about how when we hope for something and it doesn’t happen we feel like we’ve lost something when in reality we never had it, and so have lost nothing, and much more. This is a deep one, so make sure to listen carefully. It’s easy to get frustrated when you feel like you haven’t made the kind of progress you would like to. But it’s important to keep in mind where you’ve come from, and stay continually thankful for what you have in your life, to continue on the journey to where you want to be. “Go out of your way to prove that you’re valuable in your niche. Do whatever it takes to demonstrate it.” - Dan Ilic(Click to tweet)Key Takeaways

What is radical honesty? You probably consider yourself to be a decently honest person. You don’t really lie. Well, maybe a little white lie here and there. But nothing serious, right? Brad Blanton’s contention is that any type of dishonesty, from the smallest white lie to even the withholding of any information is detrimental to us as humans, and causes us stress. When we withhold the way that we truly feel from anyone, we bear the brunt of that withholding, and is doing us harm. The solution he outlines in his book “Radical Honesty” is to be extreme in your honesty. To not withhold ANYTHING, no matter how graphic, or how small, or how you think it may make the other person feel. He believes that by doing this, you are freeing yourself of the heavy weight of withholding information, and will be a far freer and happier person for it. What do you think? "It is common for people to ruin their lives and kill themselves through withholding.” – Brad Blanton(click to tweet)Key Takeaways

Click here.Show Notes: JamesSwanwick.com/182“Instead of having an internet of knowledge, the shift is toward an internet of experiences and emotions and feeling.” - Kevin Kelly(click to tweet) What will the future look like? Will we experience the dystopian type of future that is so popular in films and books these days, or will it perhaps be a bit brighter than that? Will we lose jobs en masse? Will enough new jobs be created by technology to deal with all the ones that are lost? These are just a few of the fascinating questions my guest today, Kevin Kelly, and I get into on today’s episode. Kevin’s new book, “The Inevitable” details the ways in which technology will change life as we know it on earth. His insight is fascinating, and the discussion of where all of this is heading is extremely educational. If you’ve ever been curious about the future, about where technology is headed, about if humans are going to be able to handle the onslaught of new technologies, this interview is for you! “In the future, society will shift from one where we own assets to one where we have access to assets.” - Kevin Kelly(click to tweet)Key Takeaways
