I was introduced to Sivers by Levels.io on NTMY EP. 1 then read his amazing book "Anything You Want: 40 Lessons for a New Kind of Entrepreneur" With an incredible work ethic and having sold CD Baby for $22 million he is an incredible person to learn from. This podcast takes us from his musical beginnings to some insights on CD Baby. Really good episode!
This podcast is so so incredibly good. Highly recommend you listen. 💯
The story from Derek about biking at 110% effort vs enjoying himself and getting nearly the same results really stuck with me.
I think a lot of us feel like we need to be "burning the candle" at both ends to feel like we are trying hard enough / achieving enough. I liked the idea of treating your brain like you do your body (ow this really hurts, maybe I should back off a bit).
2nd favorite point was "Hell yes! vs no" - if you're not thinking "Hell yes!" to something. You're better off saying no. We all say yes to too many things.
