Jim Carrey: Memoirs and Misinformation
Jim Carrey, Film Star, Survivor, Inspiration. From humble beginnings to superstardom, he joins an elite group of comedians who have spanned the acting chasm to achieve phenomenal success. His book; Memoirs and Misinformation is a fearless semi-autobiographical novel, a deconstruction of persona. In it, Jim Carrey and Dana Vachon have fashioned a story about acting, Hollywood, agents, celebrity, privilege, friendship, romance, addiction to relevance, fear of personal erasure, our "one big soul," Canada, and a cataclysmic ending of the world-apocalypses within and without."None of this is real and all of it is true." - Jim Carrey

Elon Musk - Habits of Success
Elon Musk is unstoppable! He's the most prolific and productive CEO of our times - he's even a bit cheeky. That's why we love him at the Moonshots Podcast. With his recent purchase of Twitter, he is now involved in over five revolutionary companies. So, we ask, 'how does Elon do it?'.Elon Musk co-founded the electronic payment firm PayPal and founded the spacecraft company SpaceX. He also is the founder of The Boring Company, and co-founder of Neuralink and OpenAI. And recently purchased social media giant Twitter.Musk's recent purchase of Twitter for $44 billion was widely covered around the globe. What isn't perhaps known is Musk's ability to multitask and focus on one business at a time truly; when the world was discussing Twitter, Musk was working with his engineers at SpaceX on rock engine "valve leak solutions".INTRO (WHY NOW?)Joe Rogan reflects on the purchase and why free speech mattersJoe Reacts to Elon Musk Buying Twitter (1m44)Elon Musk and the head of TED, Chris Anderson, talk open source Twitter at TED2022 this monthElon Musk Talks About His Plans for Twitter at TED (59s)PRODUCTIVITYElon Musk at SXSW breaks down his 'boring' approach to creativity and product creation.Be a doer (1m39)THINKING ABOUT PROBLEMSElon Musk's SATELLITE 2020 Opening Day Keynote, where he honestly (comedically) breaks down problem-solvingUse management by rhyming (48s)Mohammad Al Gergawi, in a conversation with Elon Musk during WGS17, discussed the art of collaboration.Have a great team (1m02)RESILIENCE (OUTRO)Elon Musk talks to Axios about Tesla being close to death during the production of Model 3Be willing to make sacrifices (1m06)READINGElon Musk: How the billionaire CEO of SpaceX and Tesla is shaping our future by Ashlee Vance

Managing People
Hello members and subscribers! The tenth Moonshots Master episode is here and we are diving into Leadership and Managing People!To get us inspired towards the topic of Managing People we start with the Moonshots Master himself, Simon Sinek, who tells us about his first job after college, and the importance of empathy. We then hear from the motivational powerhouse, Tony Robbins, who suggests that in order to lead - rather than manage - you need to be able to read your team first. The Apple leader, Steve Jobs, then discusses what made Apple so good at managing people, and how you have to be run by ideas, not hierarchy.Now we start framing the concept of Managing People in order to fully understand ways of approaching it. We learn from Seth Godin that leaders must take responsibility, and inspire teams without using fear. Author and personal development trainer Brendon Burchard encourages us to be patient, and keep humanity the focus of collaboration and management, even when dealing with frustrating people. Simon Sinek closes this section by breaking down the meaning behind ‘Leaders Eat Last'.In our adoption section, we hear techniques that help us reframe our approaches to managing people. MindToolsVideos breakdown and explain the GROW model. Closing the Master Series show we hear from Simon Sinek once more, as he explains how to build relationships that inspire change, and how mentorship is like friendship.What key lesson are you taking from this Master Series show? Get in touch and let us know! Thanks for listening. That’s a wrap.

Second Order Thinking
Hello members and subscribers! The ninth Moonshots Master episode is here and we are diving into Critical Thinking and SECOND ORDER THINKING!Helping set the scene for Second Order Thinking we think it only right to start with Howard Marks, who explains why if you think the same as everyone else you're not going to be a superior investor. We then have breakdowns, courtesy Yanis from Time Management and Productivity, of both Second Order Thinking and how it influences future actions, as well as Second Order Consequences and how every action has a consequence.Now it’s time to truly understand the concept of Second Order Thinking, so we break down some thinking from Roman Krznaric of Big Think, who tells us that it is possible to utilise long term thinking and imagine the future if you retrain your brain. Swedish Investor then breaks down Howard Marks’ 3 chapters on risk, and how understand, recognize, and control it. Lastly, we have Taylor Benterud, who creates a great example of second order consequences for us, demonstrating some long-term thinking as a mental model with an agency model example.Helping us adopt the practice and techniques of Second Order Thinking we get introduced to the concept of critical thinking with the TED-Ed channel which help us find the most useful information. We then have Jordan Peterson teaching us how critical thinking and writing are so interconnected. And finally, we have classic Moonshotter Adam Grant who emphasises the power of procrastination, and how it’s essential to leave yourself enough time to really think and grow.Our reading list is full of tips, tricks and tools to help you harness your thinking, decision making and Second Order Thinking:The Most Important Thing: Uncommon Sense for the Thoughtful Investor, Howard MarksHoward Marks' Second Level Thinking Skills, MindToolsSecond-Order Thinking: What Smart People Use to Outperform, Farnham StreetSecond Order Thinking, Noah Pepper on MediumSecond Order Thinking: Thinking Practice To Make Better Decisions, TechTelloSuper Thinking: The Big Book of Mental Models, Gabriel Weinberg and Lauren McCannThinking, Fast and Slow Paperback, Daniel KahnemanSecond-order thinking, UnTools5 tips to improve your critical thinking, Samantha AgoosMaking Better Decisions With Second-Order Thinking, SchoolOfMomentumDr Jordan B.
