Their technology and research are changing the way we approach preventative health.

Blas Moros is a writer and voracious reader. He’s the mind behind the Rabbit Hole, a resource containing over 600 book summaries and recommendations (available at blas.com). Morgan Housel in a recent tweet called the Rabbit Hole, “a goldmine.” This sea of ideas led Blas to create the Latticework, a network for lifelong learners. The Latticework is a framework that interconnects the big ideas from the big disciplines (can be found at ltcwrk.com). Blas is a critical thinker who through both instinct and brute force has found a way to articulate ideas that we can all benefit from. Lastly, and most important, Blas is a husband and father — titles he values greatly. If you’re wondering how someone can be capable of such a high work output, without sacrificing the things that matter most, you should check out this episode. We can all take something from the organization and discipline Blas implements in his life.

In this episode we discuss the Rabbit Hole, Latticework, practical wisdom for lifelong learning, critical tools for time-management, work-life balance, infinite vs. finite games, Blas’s 10-day silent meditation retreat in Nepal, and ideas for improving student’s educational experience.
