I realize that there is a lot of hate directed towards Tim Ferriss and his tactics, but you can learn a ton from him. Even if you ignore everything that he says and writes, just watching him in action will make you a better entrepreneur. I haven't watched/listened to the interview yet, but it seems like Tim is a great fit for Mixergy.
- MikeCapone 16y agoI have up-voted both you and the parent, because while you both have opposite points of view (more or less), I fall somewhere in the middle. My favorite thing about Tim Ferriss are the video podcasts that he does with Kevin Rose. They're posted on his blog ("Random episode X"), and they're usually pretty interesting (the one they did when traveling around China comes to mind), though not mind blowing. As for the rest, I try to be inspired by his energy at trying new things and being methodical about learning, but I don't really follow him on most of the specifics of what he does.

Even if you ignore everything that he says and writes, just watching him in action will make you a better entrepreneur. I find that the best way to deal with self-promoting people is to ignore them. I have a limited amount of attention and brain space, and I really don't have time for Tim Ferriss trying to cram himself into every nook and cranny of it. Besides, Tim Ferriss is a cunt. If you try to learn from his example you'll become a cunt too. (Interesting: my spellcheck flags "cunt" as misspelled. How else would you spell it?)
