What You Will Learn

200th BOOK!


Listen Later

We started the podcast back in June 2016. In the last four-and-a-quarter years, we've read and reviewed 200 books on the podcast! We thought it was a great milestone to take a step back and have a look at what lessons we've learned from all of the books we've read and how they can tie in together.

A couple of years ago when we hit our 100th book, we did our "Top 10 Lessons". You can listen to that podcast episode here: 100th BOOK – Our Top 10 Lessons. They all hold up pretty well! Feel free to go and check out that episode, on here is a reminder of just the lessons themselves:

  1. You're Gonna Die Someday  
  2. Be Proactive (realise that you have the power to take action) 
  3. Get In The Arena, Don't Sit On The Sidelines  
  4. Delayed Gratification (long-term satisfaction far outweighs instant gratification)  
  5. The Power of Questions & The Importance of Curiosity 
  6. Have A Bias for Action (thinking and planning and dreaming are nice, but action is vital)
  7. Place lots of Minimum Bets  
  8. Effectiveness VS Efficiency: The Best Time Management Tips
  9. Listen Before You Talk  
  10. You're Either Remarkable Or You're Invisible 

They were the big 10 lessons we took from our FIRST 100 books, now we’ve thought about what NEW lessons we’ve taken from the NEXT 100 books. We started with 10 mini lessons, but then decided that they all grouped together pretty nicely into 3 BIG lessons:

  1. Question The Path
  2. Dichotomies (No Single Book Has All Of The Answer)
  3. The Myth Of The Silver Bullet
