450. Think Remarkable with Guy Kawasaki

What do Jane Goodall, Margaret Atwood, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Steve Wozniak, Kristi Yamaguchi, Ronnie Lott, Katy Milkman, and Angela Duckworth all have in common? Well, for starters, Guy Kawasaki has had in-depth, one-on-one conversations with each of them, and hundreds of successful people like them. But, as Guy writes about in his new book, what they truly have in common is similar paths to being remarkable.

Guy Kawasaki joins us on the show today to tell us about his newest book, “Think Remarkable: Nine Paths to Transform Your Life and Make a Difference.” He’s taken 250 hours of interviews with incredible individuals on his podcast, “Remarkable People,” and distilled them into one book. Rather than list out every interview one, by one, he’s identified the nine common paths that run through each one. 

In today’s episode, Guy tells us about those paths, and weaves in his own hilarious, personal stories. And he has plenty of stories: He’s been the Chief Evangelist of Apple, trustee of the Wikimedia Foundation, special assistant to the Motorola division of Google, and much more. 

Guy’s wisdom and insights are a delight. Take a listen!
