The Less I Know Podcast

Life Design

General Intellectual Pursuits, Product Design, Business Models, Strategic Roadmaps, etc... These all are areas we tend to methodically plan and design, but what about when it comes to your own lives... How much planning and design goes into that? If you're honest with yourself, the answer is very little or zero.  In this podcast, we've taken on the "Life Design" methodology, popularized by Dave Evans and Bill Burnett. We're going to share some interesting dysfunctional career/life beliefs we all carry and walk through two helpful exercises opening your eyes to the possible future "selfs" that you can experiment with.  Enjoy that extra resources below...  * Life Design talk (Dave Evans: Designing the Life You Really Want)  - [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fh3db34lUk&t=0s] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXkv6Lju4l4&t=2962s [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXkv6Lju4l4&t=2962s] * 80,000 Hours - https://80000hours.org/ [https://80000hours.org/] * Cal Newport: So good they can't ignore you (talk) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwOdU02SE0w&t=1s * Scott Adams "Talent Stack" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rG3PcdTyZ6w [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rG3PcdTyZ6w]

Nothing Works...

We always hear success stories from the media (rags to riches, lame to fame etc.) and we tend to highlight the good stuff and ignore the long, difficult climb to success. In this podcast, we focus on that long and difficult climb to success. Inspired by a talk from Jack Conte (founder of Patreon, a crowdfunding membership platform that allows creators to accept donations from their fans/audience) we dive deep into our own failures and learnings from our journey of becoming the best version of ourselves. This one is an interesting one, we get real and honest about these failures in the effort of reducing our ego and accepting/learning from them. We hope you enjoy this one :) Here's the talk [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fh3db34lUk&t=0s] - [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fh3db34lUk&t=0s] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fh3db34lUk&t=0s [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fh3db34lUk&t=0s]
