1. Safety
- 2 weeks of water
- 2 power generators
- 10-15 min away from downtown in the case of attacks, etc.
- Have an office downtown as a backup place
2. Aesthetics
- Have different types of floors and windows.
- Have lots of open areas in your house
- Try to raise the floor in some parts of the house to make it seem bigger and create different areas
- Every piece of furniture, artwork, etc. should be chosen to give you a certain emotional state. Tim likes to have a lot of easy to take care of plants, pictures of nature, or something that reminds you of your past
With each day Tim Ferriss becomes even more Tim Ferriss than the wildest caricature one could possibly imagine.
Thank you Tim. My parents gave me The Four Hour Work Week for Christmas in 2010. Transformed my life forever. So much gratitude.
Really? What did you change in your life after reading the book?
@@wilmercuevas6491 It opened up a window of insights, possibilities, and practical steps that I never had thought about before. A great teacher has the ability to show something new or simply point something out. That’s the seed :)
You are brother from another mother😊 I am a New Zealander and also spent 12 months in Japan on a 12 month youth exchange. Love plants, art , books , good food, non drinker and have often suffered with depression but always worked and functioned. I’ve enjoyed all your books and they inspired me over the years to make changes. Have not suffered with depression for over 20years.
This is exactly why I create the art that I do of nature and horses. Horses are the ideal form of energetic biofeedback for humans and there are so many details in nature that serve us to inspire awe and solace. Thank you, Tim!
First things first, create safety inside yourself, and relation to others. Then, the laundry...
Hi Tim! I’m so thrilled you’re addressing home! Our home is a Petri dish for our life & holds an untapped potential for shifting our life on fundamental levels-think Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Home is a vital ingredient to our overall well-being-physical, mental, emotional. Why our home has been neglected by most wellness practitioners is beyond me. Our home communicates a hidden language with our subconscious mind, so what our home speaks influences the internal dialogue within our mind...our living environment triggers the thought-feeling feedback loops, which impact our mood, behavior, routines, habits, choices...ultimately impacting the experience of our life. This is a fascinating (& life changing) rabbit hole of exploration I’ve spent the last 10+ years studying & practicing. It’s a results oriented approach to home...I call it Holistic Interior Design because it takes YOU & what you WANT for your life, as central to the process. This method & philosophical approach is based in epigenetics neuroplasticity, design & the Self/soul (& the work of Aristotle, Maslow, Carl Jung, Joseph Campbell, Bruce Lipton & Joe Dispenza). Our home not only contributes to our overall well-being, home offer an incredible opportunity for encouraging & accelerating the life we WANT to experience.
Powerful video. Alan Watts has some great lectures on how absurd it is that we live in sterile boxes on grid roads. Many people don’t sense how a space affects them.
‘’Without safety the home means nothing.’’
Safety is so overlooked, I'm so glad Tim mentioned this portion.👌
A home is an instrument for making art, a gym, a library, a chef's blank slate.
I'm sure he can go even more in depth into it and make it into a book (that I would undoubtedly buy).
The concept of home from a digital nomad perspective.
A fresh look into covering one of the most important blocks of the Maslow's hierarchy of needs. The need for security.
Shelter or as some call it real estate, or even home office design, is a basic need. This type of education is so practical.
It opens up a new way of thinking about our homes and the way they influence our behavior.
Levels. Wasn’t that Kramer’s idea?
Location advice is so true.
I live in a houseshare, but being 10 mins from the centre is so convenient, yet easy to get out to the airport and motorway when needed.
More space for exercise etc.
My quality of life improved so much when I could choose where I lived.
Still working on the rest 😅
Perfect timing as I just moved to my new apartment here in Stockholm!
Hey Tim can we get a house tour??
If safety is important to you, then a house tour is not a good idea. It's like online shopping for the bad guys out there.
I doubt Tim would ever do a house tour. He may be everywhere on Internet, but he seems like a very private person. Also, safety.
He's shown his old place when he lived in San Francisco and it's a cool look at the aesthetic he's into (or at least was then). Not a full on house tour but def certain sections. Worth a look.
@@IEVAKambarovaite he shared his living area before including in books.
@@nocando89 I remember, it looked quite cozy
The notes on safety surprised me until I remembered tim has historically lived in hurricane and earthquake territory. Coming from the midwest, I don't generally think of natural disasters as a thing that can impact my life that much. Sure, we have tornado's and life-threatening cold, but ultimately those are small threats that our infrastructure is built to take in stride.
Nice of you to assume that I have a pool.
Love this video! You are so right. You must have at least 2-weeks storage of water. A rain catching system wouldn't be bad either. As far as living that close to a big city. We're actually trying to move further away.
I had to re-read and re-read the subject and Tim Ferris' name before clicking 😅 lol! However after watching this... still the same efficiency-addicted Tim Ferris! 👍🏻
Loved the concept of emotional cues you talked about in a previous video, didn't think furniture played a part in it :D I do like wood, it makes a room feel warm
'Yet, more reasons why I love my Brother, Tim Ferriss. 'Cant wait to hopefully meet and, man.... even, have the opportunity to interview you, Tim. For how you take in the 🌎... there are little words that'd quite do you justice! What an extraordinarily useful, generous, and empoweringly calming gift -- per usual, my dear friend (whom actually, you don't know, personally). Haha... Thank You.
My fav home nest has sensual priorities - Visual (color & task lighting inside and out) Smell (I agree with comment below: homemade pot of chili, bake a pie) Audio (birds, wind rustling leaves outside, entertainment low enough for conversation) tactile Feel (wood floors, soft carpet under foot, comfy furniture) Taste (fridge for homemade food, ice and filtered water plus coffee) Neighborhood that you feel safe walking at night and yet your property has landscape that creates privacy & soundproofing.
An unusual topic, but just as insightful - really getting value from Tim's posts on YT
Hi Tim, watching from Korea. I was totally hooked with your two books. Ive read them in like 3 days. Not only the content was superb, I really enjoyed your writing voice. And thats why Im watching this video on home which I have no interest at all. 😂 this proves that I can hear you talk about literally anything. Anyways, if you happen to read my comment, thanks fir what you’re doing!
interesting video, wouldn´t expect this topic from Tim Ferriss - but a very nice answer :)
Watching from Singapore. Very thankful to be living here especially for safety. No natural disasters, hardly any roots or protest. We got water problems tho
Change any environment into a warm home in 12 minutes. Make a kettle of chili.
Some very sensible tips. Thanks! @timferris
Totally agree with the different leveled room is also my indoor/outdoor sunroom with a fireplace. My favorite room aside from my bedroom n recent redone kitchen 🙏🌅
Our environment shapes us unconsciously. Great tips! 👍
Thank you Tim. What model generators did you go with? I’m currently prepping a house in the mountains and gas generators sound like a good idea.
Dear Mr Ferriss. How are you? I hope that you are well. 🙂
What, an interesting and amazing short video. 10/10.
Very intersting topic! It was nice to hear your perspectives on this, though unfortunately a lot of the aesthetic unattainable for me at the moment. Love the "emotional state" and safety stuff though--all I find very important!
whoaaaa this is really good info thanks for sharing.
Tim Ferris is a prepper. Nice
Indoor / outdoor spaces are gold!
Great tips, thanks Tim! Curious if your “rainforest kitchen” home that you shot promo parts of the 4 Hour Chef in, was in San Francisco?
5:05 Greene and Greene = Japanese + Northern Californian blend architecture (Big Sur Esilon). “Extremely calming.”
5:25 Most items (artwork, furniture, etc.) is selected with the intention to produce a particular *emotional state.* Be acutely award of the things that effect your mood. Lots of plants.
Dang, that was great.
Japan is really freezed Tang Dynasty. Love it
4:10 Open floor plan with multiple levels (kitchen in particular). Makes the space feel 2x the size.
This was unexpected. Very cool. @tim Ferriss
Overall good suggestions, especially about safety. But I was drawn to the video because I had considered the exact topic when buying a new home. My previous home had a two level open family room. Initially, it looks grand and impressive but after 6 years of living with it, I got more disillusioned. It lacked a cozy feeling to sit with my family. Sounds reverberated. It just didn’t feel homely but more like a foyer of a hotel. I was looking for such recommendations in the video.
Yes! Timbo! Also, i think we are both wearing Vuori clothing at the same time haha
How To Make A Home Feel Like A Home: Move Next To Tim.
Tim Ferris’s brain is huge 🧠
Nice job!
Excellent video! A+++
Thanks Tim
Great video
Would love a tour if that's not too personal lol
12 gauge and a big dog covers safety . Not hording.is a great way to keep the house open and nice.
Beautiful forest image at 06:40
He's living my dream life lol
I'd love to see your house in one of your videos, to observe how your safety and coziness look like
Yea. wish AD and Tim could do a home tour!
Then what's the point of privacy and safety!?
Totally, it seems ridiculous to me to answer this question without any visuals of what this looks like in practice. For me just talking about his answer to the question was very obnoxious, and narcissistic. Why make a video of this at all? Just answer on your podcast. Or better yet, just summarize in 11 lines of text like the other commenter. Why waste 8 minutes and 26 seconds of all the viewers time in what could be accomplished in 11 lines of text
I love the driving distance parameters to airport and downtown paired with a downtown office. Strong video here Tim. Seems like an upgrade from lugging up that generator during the bay area power outages you described in one of your books.
Why would you have power generators if you can have renewable energy and home storage batteries?
Where is this shirt from?
Tim has described my house ... almost. Our taste in art is different.
My location is almost exactly as he describes - a long, pretty walk to my downtown office,
Feels like a nice introduction to home tour. Can we expect some? (:
7:10 whahaha this cracked me up
Great! But you haven't said anything about feng-shui, the importance of it. Feng shui is crucial in a house, I recommend finding a master. It changed my life! (in a good way)
You want a country setting neighborhood in an average sized city. Best of both worlds
Exactly. That’s what we have. I love it!
Great safety insights.
It's not the house that feels like home; it's the relationships in it it that make it, or don't, feel that way.
This is just what a lot of people moving around the world need to hear!!
Can we get an MTV Cribs style video of your home? haha.
Wow he knows green and green. The northern Oregon one is my favorite
That was not where i thought that was going. Interesting.
Cribs tour cribs tour!
How would one create that extra level on the cheap?
Plants are a good start, and getting rid of items that won't serve your happiness.
My wife and I w/ our two dogs have lived in Airbnb homes only for past 5 yrs staying a few months in each one so we don't technically have a home. As long as we're all there together it feels like a home
As a multimillionaire, this is very helpful.
Surprised by the safety details 🙂
security cameras, window assessment - good curtains, a film.
Same
gratitude #stocism "Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be."
What, no snooker table?!
🙌
Wow
Short cut hack on safety live in Switzerland and don’t worry about a of the prepper stuff
No where on the planet is 100% safe
I tend to live my life around the "Shaun of The Dead" outline. Cricket bat, check. Bunch of old LP's, check. Job done.
@05:18
Cook with onions.
😎
House tour!
Tim forgot to include Toilet paper supplies in the Safety section
What clothes are you wearing? How do you shop for clothes? What do you look for when buying clothes?
A little intense horse archery action there Tim Tam Talk Talk
yeah, we won´t need the water supply in Germany xD
put a caption in Portuguese
2nd!
Tim how about a house tour
Two levels in kitchen/dining! Trip hazard actually.
You missed having a pet in home.
I was kind of hoping for an actual tour, rather than some prepper descriptions of a potential apocalypse...
2 weeks of water, only needed in the US!
He is first looking like a robot trying to be human and I am puzzled by his suggestions🤣
Have lots of kids is the first part of a home 😎
Haha
This is ok.....
.....but.....
....these are not financial feasible to at least 1/3 of the American public.
The whole safety thing, water supply, back up power etc is so foreign to me. This is not something I am worried about in the Netherlands. Sounds so prepper to me but maybe we are totally stupid over here!
USA. The only 1st world country with 3rd world problems.
What a bourgeois video
