The Tim Ferriss Show is often ranked as the #1 business podcast on all of Apple Podcasts, and many times, it’s been the #1 podcast in all categories, out of 500,000+ shows. I was honored to be Tim's guest and share with listeners about why character and energy are so interconnected.
Energy Management And Our Inner Scorecard
I learned long ago that time management can be overrated. Instead, how can we optimize the energy we bring to the time we devote? How can we focus our time and energy in ways that help us align with our deepest values and our best selves?
The Shortcut Trap
Many high achievers can be drawn to shortcuts that help them advance in rankings or secure lucrative deals. We all want to think of ourselves as good people, and we also want to find the quickest and easiest route to whatever we're pursuing. But satisfaction often feels chronically out of reach when our inner voice constantly serves up nagging reminders of ways we've failed to live up to what we value most.
True happiness and lasting contentment come from practicing and training our character.
In this conversation, we discuss:
Mental toughness, integrity, and changing your story
Energy management
The power of journaling
Olympic Gold Medals
Your private voice and scorecard

The power broker in your life is the voice that no one hears. How well you revisit the tone and content of your private voice is what determines the quality of your life. It is the master storyteller, and the stories we tell ourselves are our reality.
