Happy New Year!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening to The Tim Ferriss Show, which will hit its 10th anniversary soon.
Below are some of my favorite TFS moments from 2023. I’m using them, and I believe you can use them, as launching points to become healthier, wealthier, and wiser in 2024. I’ve thrown in a few laughs, too, as those are perhaps most important of all.
The clips below cover a wide range of topics—the very tactical and practical (exercise routines, optimizing to-do lists, building habits, goal setting), life-transforming decisions and big-picture moves (rites of passage, personal reinvention), and much more.
2024 is going to be very big! Secret plans are already in the works…
