P.S. "New from Tim" is brought to you by Dry Farm Wines! I love drinking wine with friends, but I often hate the next-day effects. Hangovers, headaches, and sluggishness can punch you in the head after the excessive sugar, high alcohol content, and toxic additives that you find in many store-bought wines. Dry Farm Wines is the only additive-free, lab-tested, natural wine membership that I trust for organic wines that meet my health standards. Practically sugar-free, low in alcohol, and organically grown by small family farms, each glass of wine from Dry Farm Wines is delicious and gives me smiles without frowns the following morning. Get an extra bottle in your first membership box for just one extra penny when you sign up today. Check out all the details and learn more at DryFarmWines.com/Tim.
🎧 New podcast episode:
Richard Koch — Revisiting the 80/20 Principle, The Power of Optimistic Journaling, Studying History to Improve Investing, and The Grand Beliefs of Winners (Plus: The Toxic Beliefs of Losers)
Richard Koch (@RichardKoch8020) is an entrepreneur, investor, former strategy consultant, and author of several books on business and ideas, including four on how to apply the 80/20 principle in all walks of life.
His investments have grown at 22 percent compounded annually over 37 years and have included Filofax, Plymouth Gin, Belgo, Betfair, FanDuel, and Auto1. He has worked for Boston Consulting Group and was a partner at Bain & Co. before joining Jim Lawrence and Iain Evans to start LEK, which expanded from three to 350 professionals during the six years Richard was there.
In 1997, Richard’s book The 80/20 Principle reinterpreted the Pareto Rule—which states that most results come from a small minority of causes—and extended it beyond its well-known application in business into personal life, happiness, and success. The book, rewritten in 2022, has sold more than a million copies, been translated into roughly 40 languages, and has become a business classic. It was named by GQ as one of the top 25 business books of all time. Richard’s latest book is Unreasonable Success and How to Achieve It.
He has two upcoming books: 80/20 Beliefs, which identifies the very few beliefs in our lives that strongly influence what we do, and, therefore, the results we get, and 80/20 Daily, a collection of 365 short daily readings using the 80/20 philosophy to achieve the good life.
Please enjoy!
