Get rich, healthy and wise thanks to Tim Ferris

Get rich and do it healthy and become wise - that is the approach of Tim Ferriss. But first, let me ask the question: why should you buy a book that is a monster with over 700 oversized pages and weighs 1,5 kg? If you're in bed and want to read it, you need both handsto hold it, and after a short while your arms will become heavy. So why should you wear a book like that to yourself? There is only one reason: Because it’s awesome.

The book is, so to speak, a written “best-of” of the podcast talk shows that Ferris has been running with more or less prominent guests for several years. Most of the people in the book are not known in Germany - and some are probably not known in the States either, but they are still very interesting people. But you can also find a few well-known names in this country such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Marc Andreessen, Tony Robbins, Peter Thiel, Scott Adams, Kevin Costner, Paulo Coelho and Jamie Foxx.

Ideas from the world of celebrities How others do it ...

They all chatter a little from their lives, give insight into how to keep fit, what drives them, what they eat, what they do to sleep well, what rituals they have, how to best invest their money, which Mistakes one should absolutely avoid with anything and so on and so forth.

All things that we know about ourselves and that have already preoccupied us. For the most part, that's very inspiring. But there are also many things that leave us completely cold because they do not affect us. But as Ferris himself says: What interests and excites one is completely irrelevant to the other.

The people are different. "This book is a buffet," Ferris writes, and everyone should choose what they like best or what they would like to try. Therefore, his “Rule No. 1” for reading his book is also: “skip a lot”.

Be careful with the golf ball!

The book is divided into three major parts: Health, wealth and wisdom. For Ferris, these are "the three pillars upon which life is built." In addition to the summaries of the conversations with his talk show guests, the book contains so-called "topic chapters" in each area, in which Ferris himself comments on specific questions. These sections alone justify the purchase of the book. Among other things, it is about unusual and effective bodyweight exercises.

It's also, in typical Ferris fashion, lightly written and a delight to read. Often it is also funny and humorous. For example, on page 30 he recommends rolling your foot on a golf ball to increase hamstring mobility. The warning: "But put a towel under the golf ball so that you don't slip and your dog Eye shoot out!” Inspirational, entertaining, educational, optimistic. Buy it, read it, give it to your relatives and friends.

Earning by Doing: Smart guide for new shareholders

And again it comes to the topic of finance: Interest rates are historically low, so the stock market is an attractive opportunity to earn income. But what do you have to pay attention to? Oliver Roth, a professional stock market trader, shows with his book what small investors need to know in order to be successful on the stock market.

Just for the target group that has been watching “Börse vor eight” on TV for some time, who is tired of playing the lottery and likes to join in shares would speculate - if she had the necessary basic understanding of stock exchange trading. Oliver Roth closes these knowledge gaps with his book “Earning by Doing” in a quick run-through. The former professional soccer player explains what makes successful shareholders concrete, clear and free of any technical jargon. Good: Roth has the small investors in the right from the start Sinn, not the professional traders. The author does not require any previous knowledge. All technical terms are explained in detail once, many also several times.

7 rules for investors - all not so difficult

In a loose chat tone, Roth describes the correlation of bullish and bearish movements, of stock wealth by derivatives trading, inflation and indices. His personal heights and depths are also discussed. This does not seem as stiff as the presentations of the economic press.

Everything is quite logical once you understand it: the author whets the appetite. And that is exactly his message: stock trading is almost as easy as playing the lottery, only the chances of winning are clear higher if you stick to his tips translated into everyday language.

Hitting the right note for more self-determination

Roth meets the right tone for the stock exchange beginners: understandable, optimistic, straight ahead! This is probably the best book for all new shareholders, who want to know exactly, without suffering from professional literature.

Lothar Seiwert also strikes the right note: the Pope of German, of all things Time management declares the same dead.. His book “Austickt” is a work full of food for thought, peppered with entertaining anecdotes and stories that always consistently head for the basic question: how can you lead a self-determined and sovereign life?

The wrong job leads to burn-out

Work until you drop. More and more and faster. And if you're really good at the job, you'll just get more work done. Same overload at leisure. My house, my car and so on. Remedies promise seminars and guides on self-management and time management. How do I organize myself so that I can get everything on the chain?

In the middle of this debate bursts Professor Dr. Lothar Seiwert with his book “Ausgetickt”. Wow! Lothar Seiwert has worked hard with it. “I'm no longer your time management pope!” He seems to hurl at his readers (and fans) with this book.

For more sense at work

Ironically, the so-called “time management pope” wants time management tools, from all of them Tricks and help, know nothing more. Because, he is convinced, it's not about how much and how long we work. It's about whether we work under external or self-determination.

Because time management can be done differently. According to Seiwert, what matters is not how long you work, but what you work. Easy said. The question “what should I work” was far from answered. And that is exactly what Seiwert is doing now and is making up for it very impressively in his new book. A self and timeCoaching-Book at its finest.

Working more and still less stress?

“I'm sorry, I was wrong. We all have to say goodbye to time management if we want to have time again. ” If someone throws the foundation of their work (and their income!) So radically, they have to have reasons.

For Lothar Seiwert, these reasons are experience, curiosity and Courage. The key question for his Reorientation was simple: Why are there people who are on duty around the clock and still give a completely relaxed impression, while others with a "9 to 5" job are stressed to the point of burnout.

With full diapers is good stink

And more, why even the unemployed suffer from Stress? The conclusion is obvious. It can't be because of the amount of work. So only the type of work remains. "It's easy for him to talk". Seiwert knows the objections to his theses: once you have enough money and a great job, you naturally have no stress.

But after all, not everyone can turn their hobby into a hobby Job make. Conversely, it becomes a shoe, says Seiwert. And his counter hits. He brings examples from everyday life that everyone knows only too well. On one side the waiter with the bright eyes, on the other side the muffle.

Matching must be right!

Here the postman who also delivers the sunshine with every package, there the stressed guy who just "drops off" his package. Same jobs, completely different interpretation. So it's not about the money, it's about the right fit. If this is not correct, neither generous break regulations nor a huge one will help salary.

The example of the former Swiss cardiac surgeon, who gave up his job and his salary in order to make his life's dream come true, namely to become a truck driver, shows what “fit” means. In retrospect, it was his second birth.

What are people really afraid of?

The book “Ticked. Rather self-determined than externally controlled” is not a closed theory, but a tentative forward movement with surprising findings. In doing so, Lothar Seiwert draws on three sources: personal experience Background and on intuition.

He dares to ask new questions and he also dares to give answers that do not fit the political mainstream. "What are people actually afraid of?" He asks. What is meant is: What keeps people from doing what they actually want to do?

The really important questions

Given that we are in one of the richest countries in the world Welt To live at a level of prosperity that has never been known in history is an important question.

Lothar Seiwert makes his way from time management pope to life philosopher in his book “Ausgetickt”. A book full of thought-provoking impulses, peppered with entertaining anecdotes and stories, which always consistently steer towards the basic question: How do you succeed in leading a self-determined and sovereign life?
