A New Way of Being

How To Make Good Decisions: former spy Shane Parrish


Listen Later

How to make sure you are in the right place at the right time - with the former intelligence officer turned entrepreneur, author and Farnham Street founder Shane Parrish.

In this episode, Shane explains the art of 'positioning', and how to play life in 'easy mode' rather than 'hard mode', a skill used by the world's most consistent top performers.

He identifies the barriers to clear thinking - Emotional, Ego, Social and Inertia - and explains how to 'get them before they get you'.

He also explains why adopting some simple rules that you can identify for yourself can be life-changing, and save you energy and regret.
