Timothy Ferriss, nominated as one of Fast Company’s “Most Innovative Business People of 2007,” is an angel investor (StumbleUpon, Digg, Twitter, etc.) and author of the #1 New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and BusinessWeek bestseller, The 4-Hour Workweek, which has been sold into 35 languages.
He is also an active education reformer and has architected experimental social media campaigns such as LitLiberation to out-fundraise traditional media figures like Stephen Colbert 3-to-1 at zero cost, building schools overseas and financing more than 25,000 US students in the process. He is on the advisory board of DonorsChoose.org, an educational non-profit and winner at Fast Company’s 2008 Social Capitalist Awards.
Tim received his BA from Princeton University in 2000, where he studied in the Neuroscience and East Asian Studies departments. He developed his nonfiction writing with Pulitzer Prize winner John McPhee and formed his life philosophies under Nobel Prize winner Kenzaburo Oe. He is 32 years old, and The 4-Hour Workweek is his first book.

Forget the old concept of retirement and the rest of the deferred-life plan–there is no need to wait and every reason not to, especially in unpredictable economic times.

This step-by-step guide to luxury lifestyle design teaches:
•How Tim went from $40,000 per year and 80 hours per week to $40,000 per month and 4 hours per week

•How blue-chip escape artists travel the world without quitting their jobs

大家好! 现在的我正在飞机上,飞行在中国和美国加州之间的某个上空。这应该是一个不错的地方——写下这段序言。 1995年,我在普林斯顿大学第一次上中文课。一周8节课,超强的语音训练,最终导致我的咽喉严重发炎,而我对中国的兴趣则愈发浓厚。正是...
评分(1)新贵的工作态度 a. 让别人为自己工作; b. 不为工作而工作,花最小的代价取得最大的效果(最小有效工作量minimum effective load); c. 定期分配一生的休整期和冒险期(迷你退休)。意识到完全的消息并不是目标,做令人兴奋的事情才是真正的目标; d. 做自己想做的一切,...
评分书其实还没读完。 我书读得不多,所以对于书中作者提的一些前人就提出过的观点我是第一次接触。 书读到一半,我已经觉得要实现这样的梦想,似乎还有点远。 关于远程工作。中国老板很多还是很难接受的。除非是公司中老顶尖的人物,否则跟老板申请远程工作的话,老板会说,你不愿...
评分 评分这本书会改变你的一生, 这不是开玩笑的! 忘记以往那些所谓退休的概念, 以及剩下的那些 生命中迟迟未开始的计划, 没有必要等下去, 不管为任何理由都没必要等下去! 不管你的梦想是从猫和老鼠的赛跑中脱离出来, 还是享受高端的环球旅行, 零管理的每月赚五位数收入, 或者仅仅只是更多地享受生活更少地工作, 这本书都可以作为你的蓝图!
评分同一时间只专注做一件最重要的事。选择性忽视工作生活中的 friction。次要事情上,权利外放。屏蔽news。身边充满正能量的人。Attention is more precious than time, total deliberation time, saving of attention bank; prioritize, be uncomfortable, minimal; train others, agenda, rules, what can I help you with? Don't check emails constantly; let the small bad things happen so that big good things can happen.
评分好书不过你懂它,它也懂你。
评分A quarter of boasting random achievements, a quarter of repetitive blog post compilation, and a quarter of shameless promotion of his other books. I'm left with one takeaway which is it's about time for me to hire a personal assistant.
