Hi All! Here is your weekly dose of 5-Bullet Friday, a list of what I’m pondering and exploring. Feel free to forward along if the spirit moves you. This edition is brought to you by Eight Sleep. Be sure to see their offer in the P.S. What I’m wearingGlerups. Many of you asked about the shoes I’m wearing in this photo. In the colder months, I wear Glerups indoors effectively 100% of the time. I love them. What I’m listening to“Burn” (YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music) by Ellie Goulding. This has become one of my go-to feel-good tracks. It’s perfect for first thing in the morning or at 5 p.m. after too many video calls have chewed on your soul. Summer destinations I’m considering“The 24 Best Places to Go in 2024” If you have any clear favorites, please let me know on Twitter @tferriss! I’ll start referring to it as “X” in 2030. What I’m readingString Theory: David Foster Wallace on Tennis. “Federer Both Flesh and Not” is considered one of Wallace’s best essays, and it doesn’t disappoint. I’m not a tennis player, and that didn’t affect my enjoyment of this writing one iota. The essay was first published in The New York Times as “Federer as Religious Experience” in 2006. Poem I’m pondering, bolding minebehind the pain You can complement this edition of 5-Bullet Friday with my recent interview with Deep Work author Cal Newport, the latest episode (“How to Start a Business”) from The Tim Ferriss Experiment, and my conversation with the co-founder of string field theory Michio Kaku. P.S. Deal of the Week — Eight Sleep Pod Cover.Good sleep is one of the keys to unlocking your maximum potential. More than 30% of Americans struggle with sleep, and I’m a member of that sad group. Temperature is one of the main causes of poor sleep, and heat is my personal nemesis. I’ve suffered for decades, tossing and turning, throwing blankets off, pulling them back on, and repeating ad nauseam. But a few years ago, I started using the Pod Cover, and it has transformed my sleep. The Pod Cover by Eight Sleep fits on any bed like a fitted sheet and improves your sleep with cooling technology that automatically adjusts the temperature on each side of the bed, based on your and your partner’s individual needs. It can cool down to as low as 55°F or warm up to 110°F, monitoring and responding to your sleep phases and environment for your best night of sleep ever. |
