书籍介绍
这不是一本教你成功的工具书，而是一座由100多位顶尖人物搭建的'人生咨询台'。作者蒂姆·费里斯放下'如何四小时工作'的执念，转而追问一个更本质的问题：当你被生活的难题困住时，该向谁求助？于是他把播客访谈的录音整理成册，让达利欧谈推荐的书、娜迪亚·费里斯式的运动员讲如何面对失败、Facebook联合创始人演示如何对多数请求说'不'。读者最看重的，恰恰是它'less personal but of higher quality'的特质——没有煽情，没有鸡汤，只有一个个具体、可迁移的决策片段。它适合两类人：一是想高效汲取他人经验、不愿重走弯路的实践者；二是'面对鸡汤毫无波澜'、需要真实观点刺激的人。翻开它，你得到的不是答案，而是上百种面对同一问题的不同解法。
作者简介
TIM FERRISS has been called “a cross between Jack Welch and a Buddhist monk” by The New York Times. He is one of Fast Company’s “Most Innovative Business People” and an early-stage tech investor/advisor in Uber, Facebook, Twitter, Shopify, Duolingo, Alibaba, and 50+ other companies. He is also the author of four #1 New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestsellers: The 4-Hour Workweek, The 4-Hour Body, The 4-Hour Chef, and Tools of Titans. The Observer and other media have named him “the Oprah of audio” due to the influence of his podcast, The Tim Ferriss Show, which has exceeded 200 million downloads and been selected for “Best of iTunes” three years running.
精彩摘录
- "就发明一些能让人们放纵的东西。”有人确实发明了这种东西，那就是互联网、社交媒体。"
- "真正的作品和满足感绝对不是来自网络，而是来自专研，比如正在写的书，正在录的专辑，正在拍摄的电影，并且要在其中沉浸很长时间。"
用户评论
It’s a short reminder that success can usually be measured by the number of uncomfortable conversations we are willing to have, and by the number of uncomfortable actions we are willing to take.那我可真是能赢麻了，日常在我看来就够不适了
鸡汤文，在事业低潮期、迷茫的时候可以得到一定的鼓励。不足的是整本书流水帐式地写了一个又一个名人的采访，没有先后次序，没有总结归纳，以致于很多名人对同一个问题的回答自相矛盾，大大降低了这本书的价值。
和<tools of titans>调调相似，整理的更好，问题更清晰，回答和思考更深入，就是没有了脑洞轰炸的新鲜感，可能是《Tools》反复阅读太多遍了吧。
一本工具书，可以了解各种人的心态、工具、价值观。看到成长/试错轨迹多种多样，蛮有意思的。每天几分钟、几分钟的看。竟然在年末这天看完了。也算印证书末那句：The secret in winning any game is in not trying too hard.
处在面对鸡汤和名言毫无波澜的时期，很主观。
I like it. When I saw Brian Koppelman’s name I was really excited. Tim Ferriss did interview some awesome creators. The value depends on these interviewees’ accomplishments, so if you’re not familiar with them you would call it chicken soup, but if you are, you’ll find it quite inspiring:)
就是podcast的transcript。属于信息获取书籍。
