#325: Lessons from Richard Branson, Tony Robbins, Ray Dalio, and Other Icons

Jul 5, 2018

This particular episode of The Tim Ferriss Radio Hour explores success, a slippery and dangerous term if ever there was one. The particular guests selected for this episode represent not only achievement, but also appreciation and a well-rounded version of what I consider to be a successful human being.

This episode features:

  • CDBaby founder Derek Sivers on the importance of challenging your own definitions of success.
  • Performance coach Tony Robbins on best lessons learned from working with legendary investors.
  • Venture capitalist Chris Sacca on missed opportunities and the commonalities of successful people.
  • Legendary investor Ray Dalio on the three things that make up a successful life.
  • Virgin Group founder Sir Richard Branson on the best thing his parents taught him.

I hope you enjoy this episode of The Tim Ferriss Radio Hour!
