#412: Josh Waitzkin on Beginner’s Mind, Self-Actualization, and Advice from Your Future Self

Richard Turner — The Magical Phenom Who Will Blow Your Mind | Brought to you by <a href="http://nulo.com/tim" target="_blank">Nulo</a> and <a href="http://www.inktel.com/tim/" target="_blank">Inktel</a>."Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect." — Richard TurnerI am very, very excited to introduce this interview, as I've been wanting to meet today's guest, Richard Turner, for almost two years now. I first came across Richard Turner (<a href="https://richardturner52.com/" target="_blank">richardturner52.com</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/RichardTurner52" target="_blank">youtube.com/richardturner52</a>) in the documentary <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Dealt-Richard-Turner/dp/B076HDLY9W/ref=as_li_ss_tl?keywords=dealt+documentary&amp;qid=1582137992&amp;sr=8-1&amp;linkCode=ll1&amp;tag=offsitoftimfe-20&amp;linkId=7fb6ddc77de663e98a678b6468739411&amp;language=en_US" target="_blank">Dealt</a>, directed by Luke Korem.I can't remember the last time I finished a documentary, only to want to watch it again immediately afterward. I also can't remember a doc that made me as emotional as Dealt did, pushing me from laughter to tears. It has 95 percent on <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/dealt" target="_blank">Rotten Tomatoes</a> and won the <a href="https://variety.com/2017/film/news/sxsw-2017-audience-award-winners-1202011563/#article-comments" target="_blank">2017 Documentary Feature Audience Choice Award</a> at the South by Southwest Film Festival. Everyone should watch it.But back to my guest: Richard Turner is regarded as the best card mechanic and among the best up-close magicians in the world. He has entertained millions of people, including notables like Johnny Carson, Bob Hope, Secretary of State Colin Powell, actor Brad Pitt, sports legend Muhammad Ali, and many more.His skill with a deck of cards has been featured on television shows around the world, including a performance on <a href="https://www.cwtv.com/shows/penn-teller-fool-us/" target="_blank">Penn &amp; Teller: Fool Us</a>, in which <a href="https://tim.blog/2020/01/09/penn-jillette/" target="_blank">Penn Jillette</a> admitted, "Richard Turner is one of the finest sleight-of-hand artists who has ever lived. He fooled us with every single move he did!"Note: Toward the end of the interview, you will hear Richard performing card tricks. He did them in front of me, and he absolutely blew my mind. I highly recommend checking out the interview on YouTube, as I made sure to have video from multiple angles for this episode. Just go to <a href="http://youtube.com/timferriss" target="_blank">youtube.com/timferriss</a>.

Maybe go clean up the garage or whatever it is. Right? Through that, you're going to start to think differently. You're going to act slightly differently and your mind might open up to other sources of inspiration, other problems...” — Tony FadellTony Fadell (@tfadell), sometimes called "the father of the iPod," is an active investor and entrepreneur with a 30+ year history of founding companies and designing products that profoundly improve people's lives.

Tony graduated with a BS degree in Computer Engineering from the University of Michigan in 1991.Please enjoy!This episode is also brought to you by&nbsp;SuperFat Nut Butters. These little beauties are great. I’ve been using them as quick mini-breakfasts and on-the-go fuel for a few months now. They’re 200–300 calories each, depending on which ingredient cocktail you eat (MCT, protein, macadamia, caffeine, etc.); 3–5g of net carbs per pouch; keto- and Paleo-friendly; and easy to throw in a backpack or pocket.

I reached out to these Finnish entrepreneurs after a very talented acrobat introduced me to one of their products, which blew my mind (in the best way possible). It is mushroom coffee featuring Lion's Mane. It tastes like coffee, but there are only 40 milligrams of caffeine, so it has less than half of what you would find in a regular cup of coffee.

#399: Adam Grant — The Man Who Does Everything

Tim Ferriss is a self-experimenter and bestselling author, best known for The 4-Hour Workweek, which has been translated into 40+ languages. Newsweek calls him "the world's best human guinea pig," and The New York Times calls him "a cross between Jack Welch and a Buddhist monk." In this show, he deconstructs world-class performers from eclectic areas (investing, chess, pro sports, etc.), digging deep to find the tools, tactics, and tricks that listeners can use.
