9 分钟So what if you could take the wisdom from years of conversations like this, distill it into a single short and sweet operating manual that gave you something to do every day in order to move from where you are to living a lit up life?
That's what I've created with my new book, how to live a good life, appropriately titled.
I hope it's really it's an operating manual that draws from literally thousands of hours of research, hundreds, actually, maybe even thousands now, of hours of learning and sitting at the feet of astonishing teachers and traveling the world to create something simple, a beautiful, simple model, and something to do every single day for you to make a really big difference in your lives.
If you want to check it out, go to goodlifeproject.com book.
You can read the first chapter completely for free, and then it is available for purchase@booksellers.org all over the place.
You can find a link in the show notes as well onto our show.
Hey there, it's Jonathan, and I'm here with you for a good Life project riff.
If you're new to the podcast, welcome, welcome, welcome.
These are short and sweet episodes that we add in, generally on a Thursday, to just kind of talk about one particular topic for anywhere from five to ten minutes.
Today, I gotta come clean about something as I sit here.
I'm sitting in my home studio in New York City where we record the podcast, and we've had an astonishing run of guests.
Deeply soulful, revealing, revelational, powerful conversations that have made me look inside a lot.
And it's kind of interesting for me because as I sit here, the day that I'm recording this is also just a couple of weeks after the release of my new book, how to live a good life, which I know you've all heard about because I've talked about, and it's kind of been all over the place, which I'm incredibly blessed for.
But I got caught up.
I got caught up in trying to measure the success of this opening window with the wrong metric.
And I'm the guy who actually said to my team that we're going to measure this.
We're going to measure the success over the long term.
I'm in this for the long game.
You know, I feel like I've written something that was, that was my best work, that was deeply meaningful, that will move the needle in people's lives.
And this is all about getting into people's hands so they can do it and so that they can start to experience change and they can share it and share change.
