And that skill is pattern matching. The difference is that we're all good at matching different patterns. The more that you can figure out which patterns you're good at matching, the more you can lean into that.”  - Jason Feifer   Key Takeaways:   Entrepreneurs are Vertical Thinkers : Entrepreneurs only do things because the thing that they're doing is the foundation upon which they will build more on. They think about how doing one thing is going to lead to the next thing, how they're going to develop some new skill or insight.    Pattern Recognition: Learning which patterns you recognize will guide you to know what you are innately talented in and how to develop. Also, if you listen to the questions that people ask you, you will discover that those questions pointing to what people think your value is to them.   The Future of Work: The four day work week if implemented can be very successful for many problems. As the future of work changes companies and employees need to understand that solving one problem might create another better problem. When this happens, it is important not to throw out the original idea, instead address the new better problem and fix it.   Identify with an Archeytpe: Identify the archetype that best defines who you are and what drives you.

Mark speaks with Dave Asprey. Dave Asprey is the father of biohacking, a four times New York best-selling author, and the founder of groundbreaking companies Bulletproof, Danger Coffee, and Upgrade Labs. Dave’s mission is to empower the entire globe with information and knowledge that unlocks the Super Human in everyone at any age. The proof of these advancements: is improved sleep, energy, and expanded capacity. His books Headstrong, Bulletproof Diet, Super Human, and the newly released Smarter Not Harder are roadmaps to accessing your full potential. “I think birth and death are the same thing. And people can say what you know or do you believe in past lives. There's an argument for that. I've seen enough of my past lives, things that I couldn't explain any other way. But maybe that's all just I've convinced myself. There's a rational argument to believe in reincarnation, and it goes like this. If reincarnation is real, then there's not a problem with believing in it. But let's assume it's false. If you tell yourself it's true, every decision you make in this life will be made with less fear because you're not afraid of dying. It's starting the video game over again versus you never get to play over. So even if you're wrong. When you die, you're not going to know you're wrong. So if you believe in reincarnation, you live this life with less fear, regardless of the actual existence of reincarnation. So I decided a while ago, you know, it's rational to believe in it, whether or not you can prove it.” Dave Asprey   Key Takeaways:   The Laziness Hack: You can trick yourself into being motivated to exercise. Look at it as the same principle as buying something on sale, and you don’t say you spent x amount of dollars to yourself, and you say I saved x amount of dollars. When you find efficient ways of getting the most out of your exercise, meditation, and intellectual pursuits, you can tell yourself you are saving time. This becomes a motivation hack, and you are more likely to do those things. Conscious Awareness: Part of being Super Human is realizing how much your “meat suit”(the body) drives your cravings and impulses. Becoming aware that those cravings and impulses are not you allows you to make better choices for your relationships, health, and longevity. Minerals are Important: Our soil is depleted of minerals, so our food doesn’t provide what the body needs. Also, certain foods deplete your body of minerals. Having a diet that feeds your body instead of robbing it of what it needs is essential. And supplementation is now becoming more vital for brain/body health. Smarter Not Harder: Biohacking is a way to navigate our busy lives and make the most out of our time each day. There are revolutionary ways to train the body that take less time and have better results. Each person is different; therefore, it is important to design your training, diet, and mindfulness practice for you specifically.   

Mark speaks with Danny Warshay. From Brown University, Danny is Professor and Executive Director at the Nelson Center for Entrepreneurship at Brown. He leads thought provoking workshops on entrepreneurship and creativity around the world. He began his entrepreneurial pursuits while an undergrad at Brown when he was a member of a software startup team company called ClearView, which then was later acquired by Apple. Then he co-founded and sold companies and fields ranging from software to advanced materials, consumer products, and the media. Danny has created a road map for entrepreneurs with his new book See, Solve, Scale: How anyone can turn an unsolved problem into a breakthrough success. Key Takeaways:   Entrepreneurship is a Learned Skill: It is a myth that entrepreneurship is something you're born with. It is something that anybody can learn. There are fundamental principles for every entrepreneur to follow and find success in their endeavor.   Diverse Teams Matter: It is statistically proven that if a founding team is diverse and inclusive at the start of founding a company, they will be more successful. This means that everyone is asked and allowed to show up as their true selves.   Ikigai: Live a life with purpose and meaning. This is a Japanese philosophy that is rooted in being clear that every decision, action, and plan is part of your life’s purpose.   See, Solve, and Skill: Seeing a problem, finding a solution, and creating a product or service for the initial problem are part of the entrepreneurial equation. It is also important to know what you are good at and make sure you love your pursuits.
