Sobre l'autor

Timothy Ferriss is an American author and public speaker. In 2007, he published The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich, which was a New York Times, Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller. Ferriss grew up in East Hampton, NY and graduated from St. Paul's School. mostra'n més He received a degree in Neuroscience and East Asian Studies from Princeton University. Before the release of the 4HWW, Ferriss was an unknown. He marketed the book heavily through bloggers with whom he created personal relationships. He has since been praised for this technique. He has also taken the position that technology such as email, instant messaging and internet-enabled PDAs complicate life rather than simplify it. His teachings fit under the umbrella of what he calls "Lifestyle Design," which he positions as an alternative to the "deferred-life" career path where one would work a 9 to 5 job until retirement in their 60s.

Fun tricks but for most people this won’t work... We still do not understand diet.

This book is no longer important for its content as it is for it capturing a particular moment in history where networks could be leveraged with minimal costs by everyone. Today the world is much more complex and I think this sort of approach would not work.

Ferris is a kind of strange hack genious...

The sections on body transformation and sleep were really good. The section on sex? Uh... fast forward. Not because I'm not a fan of sex, but as a Christian, I'm not going to be looking to the porn industry as "experts". That's just stupid.

Really enjoyed the book and recommend it even for people not looking to start their own businesses.
There is a lot of time saving advice, especially the Pareto Principle and Parkinson's Law. I'm curious how my life might change as a result of this read.
