David speaks with Khe Hy, founder and CEO of RadReads, an online education company that helps professionals lead productive, examined, and joyful lives.

Creator of the $10K Work productivity method and teaches the popular cohort-based course Supercharge Your Productivity

We talked about philosophy and spirituality behind productivity, not just talking about what we should do and when we should do it, but also how and why.

You're gonna hear us talk about Telic and Atelic activities, activities that have intrinsic versus extrinsic value. The right type of goals and objectives to have in your life, but also the right kind of motivations to help drive those goals.

And we talk about the cost of success and when it is and is not worth paying the price that comes with high achievement. And Khe really goes deep on the question of what is a life well lived? And that's something he's been pursuing for himself, but also something that he calls all of us to pursue equally.
