How to Think: A Survival Guide for a World at Odds

Alan Jacobs has written a book that will undoubtedly wake people up to thinking better yet as he regularly states in this book, “thinking is not easy.”

Summary
In this episode, I speak with Jon Dwoskin – an executive advisor, business coach and motivational speaker who’s been called the “business whisperer” for his skilled and compassionate insights into what can keep a corporate culture from thriving.

The James Altucher Show
James Altucher is the king of vulnerability and the weirdest looking guy in the entrepreneurial space that I know. That’s only a couple of reasons why I love this guy. I was first introduced to James through his blog and from there, our relationship blossomed. Man crush, yes indeed. He is one guy I’d just love to sit down with and talk to about anything and everything.
Now, that might make it all sound like a bit of a waste of time. However, James is an intelligent dude with incredible stories, experiences and very well connected. (more…)
