Ep #121: The 5-Hour Workday with Stephan Aarstol


Listen Later

More often than not, the eight-hour workday feels like a mildly productive slog. Some people work more quickly and efficiently than others, yet everybody is held to the same clock-in, clock-out schedule. So how can working less actually boost productivity, creativity, and success across the board?

Stephan and I cover a lot of ground in this interview: his appearance on Shark Tank, why the United States has some of the lowest happiness levels of industrialized countries, and how Tower has evolved into a beach-lifestyle brand are just a few of the highlights. The Five-Hour Workday challenges the stagnant workweek to catch up with the technological advances of the last few decades.
