Mr. Nastor is the author of the bestseller Hack the Entrepreneur: How to Stop Procrastinating, Build a Business, and Do Work That Matters, a book that combines the wisdom of over 200 interviews with successful entrepreneurs from Jonny’s hit podcast of the same name.

Jon’s own remarkable journey has taken him from punk rock musician, to internet entrepreneur, podcaster, educator, author, and a guy who somehow still finds time to be a husband, father, and world traveler in-between.

Join us for this two-part interview. If you missed the first half you can find it here.

In Part Two of the file Jon Nastor and I discuss:

  • How to Come to Terms with Procrastination
  • Jonny’s Unique Definition of Creativity for Writers and Entrepreneurs
  • The Effectiveness of Simple Sentences
  • Why You Should Quit When You’re Done, Not When You’re Tired
