#70: How to Earn Your Freedom

Tim Ferriss (0:24)

This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens. I get asked all the time what I would take if I could only take one supplement. The answer is invariably athletic greens. I view it as all-in-one nutritional insurance. I recommended it, in fact, in the four-hour body. This is more than 10 years ago, and I did not get paid to do so. With approximately 75 vitamins, minerals and whole food sourced ingredients, you'd be very hard pressed to find a more nutrient-dense and comprehensive formula on the market. It has multivitamins, multi-mineral greens complex, probiotics and prebiotics for gut health, an immunity formula, digestive enzymes, adaptogens and much more. I usually take it once or twice a day just to make sure I've covered my bases if I miss anything I'm not aware of. Of course, I focus on nutrient-dense meals to begin with. That's the basis. But Athletic Greens makes it easy to get a lot of nutrition when whole foods aren't readily available. From travel packets, I always have them in my bag when I'm zipping around. Right now, Athletic Greens is giving my audience a special offer on top of their all-in-one formula, which is a free vitamin D supplement and five free travel packs with your first subscription purchase. Many of us are deficient in vitamin D. I found that true for myself, which is usually produced in our bodies from sun exposure. So adding a vitamin D supplement to your daily routine is a great option for additional immune support. Support your immunity, gut health and energy by visiting athleticgreens.com/tfs. You'll receive up to a year's supply of vitamin D and five free travel packs with your subscription. Again, that's athleticgreens.com/tfs, as in Tim Ferris Show, athleticgreens.com/tfs. This episode is brought to you by Five Bullet Friday, my very own email newsletter. It's become one of the most popular email newsletters in the world with millions of subscribers. And it's super, super simple. It does not clog up your inbox. Every Friday, I send out five bullet points, super short of the coolest things I found that week, which sometimes includes apps, books, documentaries, supplements, gadgets, new self experiments, hacks, tricks, and all sorts of weird stuff that I dig up from around the world. You guys, podcast listeners and book readers, have asked me for something short and action packed for a very long time, because after all the podcasts, the books, they can be quite long. And that's why I created Five Bullet Friday.

It's become one of my favorite things I do every week. It's free, it's always gonna be free, and you can learn more at tim.blog forward slash Friday. That's tim.blog forward slash Friday. I get asked a lot how I meet guests for the podcast, some of the most amazing people I've ever interacted with.

And little known fact, I've met probably 25% of them because they first subscribed to Five Bullet Friday. So you'll be in good company. It's a lot of fun. Five Bullet Friday is only available if you subscribe via email. I do not publish the content on the blog or anywhere else.

Also, if I'm doing small in-person meetups, offering early access to startups, beta testing, special deals or anything else that's very limited, I share it first with Five Bullet Friday subscribers.

So check it out, tim.blog forward slash Friday. If you listen to this podcast, it's very likely that you'd dig it a lot and you can of course easily subscribe any time. So easy peasy. Again, that's tim.blog forward slash Friday.

And thanks for checking it out. If the spirit moves, yeah.

Hello, ladies and germs. This is Tim Ferris and welcome to another episode of The Tim Ferris Show. This is an in-between-isode, a short little morsel instead of the longer interviews that I tend to do. But you can certainly find all of those at fourhourworkweek.com forward slash podcast. But today I'm sitting in the CreativeLive offices. It's one of the startups that I work with, creativelive.com, the founder or co-founder Chase Jarvis was also on the podcast. And it's a beautiful day in San Francisco. It makes me want to get outside, to reassess what I'm so busy with. Why am I so busy? And perhaps it's time to loosen the ties and go off on an adventure to really gain some perspective. And this podcast, this particular episode might cause you to quit your job. And that would be a good thing, even if you're the boss, in many cases. And even if you do not do that, I think it will provide you with some insight and perspective and new angles on how to view lifestyle, lifestyle design and much more than that.
