The New York Times bestselling author of The 4-Hour Body shows readers how to live more and work less, now with more than 100 pages of new, cutting-edge content.

Forget the old concept of retirement and the rest of the deferred-life plan–there is no need to wait and every reason not to, especially in unpredictable economic times.

• How Tim went from $40,000 per year and 80 hours per week to $40,000 per month and 4 hours per week
• How to outsource your life to overseas virtual assistants for $5 per hour and do whatever you want
• How blue-chip escape artists travel the world without quitting their jobs
• How to eliminate 50% of your work in 48 hours using the principles of a forgotten Italian economist

• More than 50 practical tips and case studies from readers (including families) who have doubled income, overcome common sticking points, and reinvented themselves using the original book as a starting point
• Real-world templates you can copy for eliminating e-mail, negotiating with bosses and clients, or getting a private chef for less than $8 a meal
• How Lifestyle Design principles can be suited to unpredictable economic times
• The latest tools and tricks, as well as high-tech shortcuts, for living like a diplomat or millionaire without being either

The 4-Hour Body: An Uncommon Guide to Rapid Fat-Loss, Incredible Sex, and Becoming Superhuman Dec 14, 2010

by Timothy Ferriss

( 5,321 )

$16.99

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The game-changing author of Tribe of Mentors teaches you how to reach your peak physical potential with minimum effort.

“A practical crash course in how to reinvent yourself.”—Kevin Kelly, Wired

Is it possible to reach your genetic potential in 6 months? Sleep 2 hours per day and perform better than on 8 hours? Lose more fat than a marathoner by bingeing? Indeed, and much more.

The 4-Hour Body is the result of an obsessive quest, spanning more than a decade, to hack the human body using data science. It contains the collective wisdom of hundreds of elite athletes, dozens of MDs, and thousands of hours of jaw-dropping personal experimentation. From Olympic training centers to black-market laboratories, from Silicon Valley to South Africa, Tim Ferriss fixated on one life-changing question:

For all things physical, what are the tiniest changes that produce the biggest results?

Thousands of tests later, this book contains the answers for both men and women. It’s the wisdom Tim used to gain 34 pounds of muscle in 28 days, without steroids, and in four hours of total gym time. From the gym to the bedroom, it’s all here, and it all works.

You will learn (in less than 30 minutes each):

• How to lose those last 5-10 pounds (or 100+ pounds) with odd combinations of food and safe chemical cocktails
• How to prevent fat gain while bingeing over the weekend or the holidays
• How to sleep 2 hours per day and feel fully rested
• How to produce 15-minute female orgasms
• How to triple testosterone and double sperm count
• How to go from running 5 kilometers to 50 kilometers in 12 weeks
• How to reverse “permanent” injuries
• How to pay for a beach vacation with one hospital visit

And that's just the tip of the iceberg. There are more than 50 topics covered, all with real-world experiments, many including more than 200 test subjects. You don't need better genetics or more exercise. You need immediate results that compel you to continue.

That’s exactly what The 4-Hour Body delivers.

Tools of Titans: The Tactics, Routines, and Habits of Billionaires, Icons, and World-Class Performers Dec 6, 2016

by Timothy Ferriss , Arnold Schwarzenegger

( 5,294 )

$15.99

The latest groundbreaking tome from Tim Ferriss, the #1 New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek.

From the author:

“For the last two years, I’ve interviewed more than 200 world-class performers for my podcast, The Tim Ferriss Show. The guests range from super celebs (Jamie Foxx, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.) and athletes (icons of powerlifting, gymnastics, surfing, etc.) to legendary Special Operations commanders and black-market biochemists. For most of my guests, it’s the first time they’ve agreed to a two-to-three-hour interview. This unusual depth has helped make The Tim Ferriss Show the first business/interview podcast to pass 100 million downloads.

“This book contains the distilled tools, tactics, and ‘inside baseball’ you won’t find anywhere else. It also includes new tips from past guests, and life lessons from new ‘guests’ you haven’t met.

“What makes the show different is a relentless focus on actionable details. This is reflected in the questions. For example: What do these people do in the first sixty minutes of each morning? What do their workout routines look like, and why? What books have they gifted most to other people? What are the biggest wastes of time for novices in their field? What supplements do they take on a daily basis?

“I don’t view myself as an interviewer. I view myself as an experimenter. If I can’t test something and replicate results in the messy reality of everyday life, I’m not interested.

“Everything within these pages has been vetted, explored, and applied to my own life in some fashion. I’ve used dozens of the tactics and philosophies in high-stakes negotiations, high-risk environments, or large business dealings. The lessons have made me millions of dollars and saved me years of wasted effort and frustration.

“I created this book, my ultimate notebook of high-leverage tools, for myself. It’s changed my life, and I hope the same for you.”

Tribe of Mentors: Short Life Advice from the Best in the World Nov 21, 2017

by Timothy Ferriss

( 2,145 )

$14.99

Tim Ferriss, the #1 New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek, shares the ultimate choose-your-own-adventure book—a compilation of tools, tactics, and habits from 130+ of the world's top performers. From iconic entrepreneurs to elite athletes, from artists to billionaire investors, their short profiles can help you answer life's most challenging questions, achieve extraordinary results, and transform your life.

From the author:

In 2017, several of my close friends died in rapid succession. It was a very hard year, as it was for many people.

It was also a stark reminder that time is our scarcest, non-renewable resource.

With a renewed sense of urgency, I began asking myself many questions:

Were my goals my own, or simply what I thought I should want?
How much of life had I missed from underplanning or overplanning?
How could I be kinder to myself?
How could I better say “no” to the trivial many to better say “yes” to the critical few?
How could I best reassess my priorities and my purpose in this world?

To find answers, I reached out to the most impressive world-class performers in the world, ranging from wunderkinds in their 20s to icons in their 70s and 80s. No stone was left unturned.

This book contains their answers—practical and tactical advice from mentors who have found solutions. Whether you want to 10x your results, get unstuck, or reinvent yourself, someone else has traveled a similar path and taken notes.

This book, Tribe of Mentors, includes many of the people I grew up viewing as idols or demi-gods. Less than 10% have been on my podcast (The Tim Ferriss Show, more than 200 million downloads), making this a brand-new playbook of playbooks.

No matter your challenge or opportunity, something in these pages can help.

Among other things, you will learn:

• More than 50 morning routines—both for the early riser and those who struggle to get out of bed.
• How TED curator Chris Anderson realized that the best way to get things done is to let go.
• The best purchases of $100 or less (you'll never have to think about the right gift again).
• How to overcome failure and bounce back towards success.
• Why Humans of New York creator Brandon Stanton believes that the best art will always be the riskiest.
• How to meditate and be more mindful (and not just for those that find it easy).
• Why tennis champion Maria Sharapova believe that “losing makes you think in ways victories can’t.”
• How to truly achieve work-life balance (and why most people tell you it isn’t realistic).
• How billionaire Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz transformed the way he engages with difficult situations to reduce suffering.
• Ways to thrive (and survive) the overwhelming amount of information you process every day.
• How to achieve clarity on your purpose and assess your priorities.
• And much more.

This reference book, which I wrote for myself, has already changed my life. I certainly hope the same for you.

I wish you luck as you forge your own path.

All the best,

Tim Ferriss

4 ore alla settimana: Ricchi e felici lavorando 10 volte meno (Italian Edition) Feb 11, 2016

by Timothy Ferriss

( 324 )

$7.99

«Allora, che cosa fai?» Non è facile per Tim Ferriss rispondere a questa domanda, specie negli ultimi tempi. «Giro l’Europa in moto», «Faccio immersioni al largo di Panama», «Ballo il tango a Buenos Aires», a seconda del momento potrebbe essere la sua risposta. Il bello è che Tim non è un milionario, né vuole diventarlo. I soldi non fanno più la felicità.
Imprenditore seriale e ultravagabondo, per sua stessa definizione, Ferriss ha impiegato cinque anni per studiare le abitudini dei Neo Ricchi, ovvero di quel curioso gruppo umano che ha abbandonato un «piano di vita differita» (lavoro da schiavop risparmioppensione) per vivere alla grande grazie alla nuova, fortissima valuta: il tempo e la mobilità. Ha carpito i loro segreti, e oggi è il Neo Ricco più famoso d’America, conteso dalle più prestigiose università americane, da Princeton a Harvard. La sua ricetta è per tutti, la sua ricetta è in queste pagine.
Che tu sia un dipendente schiacciato da un orario fisso o un libero imprenditore fagocitato nella tua stessa attività, questo libro è una bussola per orientarti in un mondo nuovo e rivoluzionario. Qui e ora. Segui il «guru della settimana di 4 ore» e saprai come
> convincere chi sta sopra di te ad apprezzare più l’efficacia che la presenza
> delegare tutte le decisioni irrilevanti (ma anche quelle rilevanti monetizzando l’eventuale danno)
> evitare situazioni sprecatempo (per es. riunioni che non producono decisioni entro mezz’ora)
> coltivare «l’ignoranza selettiva» (pochi giornali, tv, web; e-mail una volta alla settimana)
> usare la tecnologia per ridurre gli impegni, non per centuplicarli
> inserire il pilota automatico alle tue entrate
> gestire da lontano (anche da lontanissimo) i tuoi affari

Metti alla prova il suo metodo: la felicità è a portata di mano.

Jetzt sehen die Glaubenssätze von Millionen Diätessern, Bodybuildern und Trainingsfreaks alt aus

„Zu dick“, „nicht muskulös genug“, „keine Ausdauer“ – Unzufriedenheit mit dem eigenen Körper ist weit verbreitet und leider oft berechtigt. Viele Abnehmtipps fruchten jedoch nicht und enden in Resignation. Heißt das, dass es keine sinnvollen Regeln für den perfekten Body gibt? Nein, die Regeln müssen nur neu geschrieben werden, und genau das hat sich „Der 4-Stunden-Körper“ vorgenommen. Wer allerdings nur auf die Willenskraft und Leidensbereitschaft seiner Leser baut, scheitert in aller Regel. Deswegen lautet das Motto von Timothy Ferriss: Smart abnehmen und effizient trainieren. Lernen sie, welche minimalen Maßnahmen ein Maximum an Ergebnissen bringen – durch präzise Informationen über die Funktionsweise unseres Körpers und praktische Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitungen!

Il segreto dei giganti (Italian Edition) Jul 29, 2019

by Timothy Ferriss

( 91 )

$8.99

Timothy Ferriss è molto più di un mental coach: è diventato ormai un campione del web, con milioni di follower, e con i suoi libri, “Bibbie” del saper vivere, ha catturato legioni di lettori. Di sicuro è uno che non ha paura di niente: ogni volta che si prefigge di imparare qualcosa, che sia una lingua orientale, un’arte marziale, una strategia infallibile di management, Tim sa come fare.
Ma Ferriss è diventato quello che è oggi perché ha tratto ispirazione da tanti giganti, come li chiama lui, che ha scovato in giro per il mondo, ciascuno maestro nella sua disciplina. E da loro ha carpito i segreti che li hanno resi le persone che sono oggi. Maghi degli scacchi, divi hollywoodiani, militari pluridecorati, super-atleti, scrittori da milioni di copie, grandi manager, guru della meditazione, star della medicina, assi della finanza: basta scegliere il personaggio più affine ai nostri sogni, la nostra icona.
Qui ritroviamo distillato il “Ferriss-pensiero”, nonché il suo istinto infallibile per il meglio di tutto ciò che è mainstream, cultura di massa. Entreremo in possesso di una vera e propria cassetta degli attrezzi, un kit di strumenti per cambiare la nostra vita.
Suddiviso in tre grandi sezioni – salute, ricchezza, saggezza, perché per raggiungere il successo e la felicità ci vogliono tutte e tre –, Tim ha concepito questo manuale di vita come un sontuoso buffet da cui prendere ciò che fa più gola. È il libro che voleva da sempre: si è divertito a scriverlo, sapendo che noi ci divertiremo a leggerlo.
