    The 'what would this be like if it were easy' mental model is still one of the most profound things Tim Ferriss has said that I've taken to heart. ❤ To say he enhanced my life with his books, pods, and philosophies is an understatement. He is extremely generous and thoughtful. Thank you a thousand million, Shaan, for having him on MFM. 🤙✨️

    I'm going to be real about something. I stopped listening to all these guys and their podcasts, and I instantly became more productive. Why? Because all they are talking about is what works for them because they kept failing. Want to be productive? Just set a goal and go for it. You're going to fail maybe 90% of the time, all these guys talk about is the 10% of the stuff that worked.
