This site is centered on building wealth through smart investing and entrepreneurship. The most successful people are the ones who are always learning, so I write what the research teaches us about habits, values, and efficiency.

As a lifelong entrepreneur and wanna-be renaissance man, I’ve searched for ways to continually improve.  From setting goals and forming productive habits, to getting out of debt and eating the best diet.

Below you’ll find a list of some of the most popular articles and videos, ranging from our most popular “Success Interview” with the former V.P. of Marketing of the Utah Jazz to the reason Netflix Says Hard Work Is Irrelevant.

It’s a lifelong journey where continual education and learning are fundamental. The science is constantly being updated so we’re always learning. Like many people, I’m interested in learning how I can live a more fulfilled life and be a more productive and efficient person. In many of the articles and videos, I summarize what I’ve learned as either an introduction to a topic or a deep dive, often in a series of researched, data-supported articles that explore a subject. Occasionally, I have some smart, successful people join me so we can all learn from their experiences.
