Shane Parrish is the founder, curator and wisdom seeker behind Farnam Street. He is also a bestselling author and entrepreneur known for his popular podcast The Knowledge Project and Brain Food newsletter.
Originally a personal blog where Shane could explore the discoveries made by others about decision-making, purposeful living, and the mechanics of the world, it swiftly transformed into a leading website for personal development.
Shane Parrish just released his book Clear Thinking. It is a book that equips you with the instruments to identify those pivotal moments capable of altering your path and influencing how you navigate the crucial gap between stimulus and response.
In this episode, Aaron and Shane discuss the importance of clear thinking, identifying blind spots, and making better decisions. They also explore the power of reading and the impact it can have on our lives.
Shane’s Challenge: I want to know which part of that book changed your life, which part of that book changed your thinking.
