Daniel H. Pink: The Power of Regret
Episode 170: Daniel H. Pink: 'Regret is not dangerous or abnormal, it is healthy and universal, an integral part of being human', Daniel H. Pink writes in his provocative and eye-opening new book. The Power Of Regret. 'Done right, it needn't bring us down; it can lift us up.'Drawing from research in social psychology, neuroscience, biology, and more, as well as from more than 10,000 people in 35 countries around the world who responded to his World Regret Survey - the largest of its kind ever conducted - Pink challenges the idea of regret being a drag on our self-esteem and outlook. In fact, understanding how regret actually works and using those insights to reframe our perspective of it will help us reclaim regret and bring greater meaning to our lives.

Finding Your Purpose
Hello members and subscribers! The eighth Moonshots Master episode is an under-considered topic in Personal development and transformation: FINDING YOUR PURPOSE.To prove the value of knowing your purpose, we hear from all-time great Moonshotters. Kyle Maynard explains why we should find our purpose and how making excuses is what makes you incapable of success. We then hear from Dan Millman who says we all need to learn to enjoy the journey of your life, and not let our ego drive our emotions. Breaking down the illusion of originality, we have Elizabeth Gilbert stating that authenticity and action shouldn’t be limited by what’s been done before.Now that we're ready to understand the full value of knowing our purpose, we listen to Mark Manson and The Diary of a CEO discuss why we all need to figure out what you want in order to disregard the less important stuff. Two Moonshot heavy-weights break down rethinking cycles together, with Adam Grant and Shane Parrish discussing keeping your sense of identity separate from ego. Staying true to his purpose, we have Matthew McConaughey telling the story of what happened when he started saying ‘no’ to Rom Coms (and money).In our final part we learn actionable frameworks and behaviours to help us make habits today. We hear from Simon Sinek and how you must start with a clear message in mind - in life and work - accessible via the golden circle. We then have Tim Tamashiro breaking down his ikigai and helping us know how to create ours. Lastly we realise there are no excuses for starting today, as Ryan Holiday explains how Marcus Aurelius always made time to think clearly and journal.

Mark Manson: The subtle art of not giving a f*ck
Mark Manson says most of us struggle throughout our lives by giving too many f’s in situations where f’s do not deserve to be given. Finding something important and meaningful in your life is the most productive use of your time and energy. This is true because every life has problems associated with it and finding meaning in your life will help you sustain the effort needed to overcome the particular problems you face. In his book, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, we can say that the key to living a good life is not giving a f’s about more things, but rather, giving a f- only about the things that align with your personal values.

Entrepreneurship
Hello members and subscribers! It’s time for our seventh Moonshots Master episode, and we are tackling a huge topic: ENTREPRENEURSHIP.To get us started we hear from some of the most well-known and highly regarded entrepreneurs and authors out there. Darren Hardy kicks us off with a breakdown of what it means to be an ‘Exception’ and how it takes guts to succeed. We then hear Steve Jobs’ entrepreneur story and how he battled against settling for less. Continuing our journey into inspiration Warren Buffet motivates us by stating how he ‘tap dances to work’.Now we are inspired. It's time to learn the hard truths about being an entrepreneur, and who better to share wisdom than Elon Musk who had to contend with criticism from his heroes. Helping us understand the value of starting on day one with a single-minded framework we hear from Michael E Gerber who prepares us for scale with the story of Ray Kroc and McDonald’s. Helping us analyze and understand why some businesses fail and others don’t, we learn from Bill T. Gross and his study into the reason for success being timing and teams.To help us grab the opportunities and learn from the documented mistakes made by others, we hear from three entrepreneurial authors. First up we hear from Moonshots royalty Simon Sinek who says to start with WHY to inspire action. Next, we hear from Tim Ferriss who gives us 5 tips for starting a kick-ass business. Closing out the show we have some very practical tips from Eric Ries on how to utilize a lean methodology to define - and release - a Minimum Viable Product.

Michael E Gerber: The E-Myth
What is the E-Myth? It is the myth that if you are good at doing “something,” you can turn that “something” into a profitable business. But, being good at something is.not.enough.The E-Myth Revisited explains why 80% of small businesses fail, and how to ensure yours isn't among those by building a company that's based on systems and not on the work of a single individual.Michael Gerber advocates doing a lot of thinking on the front end to prevent you from maneuvering yourself into a situation you can’t get out of.
