Episode notes

For me, i do the marginal notes where I mark ta corner if there's a note on the page. And then when i go back for the process a book, i just go through looking for the marks and basically reread em. You have a more elaborate habit where you then transfer those quotes to a sort of a discratized commonplace filing system....

In this episode of Deep Questions we try something a little different: our first guest!

Bestselling author Ryan Holiday joins me to help answer reader questions, as well as more than a few queries from me. We cover a variety of topics, including his life as a writer living on a ranch, how he fosters discipline, the impact of our diminishing reading culture, and why everyone keeps trying to get me to move to Austin.

Be sure to check out Ryan's new book: LIVES OF THE STOICS (https://dailystoic.com/preorder).
