More quotes by Tim Ferriss
Resveratrol is fascinating stuff. One of the best sources of information about it is the Immortality Institute. They have a forum where some people are in the 500 Club, as they call it. They've been taking 500 milligrams for years. It's a really great source of data.

It is far more lucrative and fun to leverage your strengths instead of attempting to fix all the chinks in your armor. The choice is between multiplication of results using strenths or incremental improvement fixing weaknesses that will, at best, become mediocre. Focus on better use of your best weapons instead of constant repair.
Tim Ferriss
Just because you are embarrassed to admit that you're still living the consequences of bad decisions made 5, 10, 20 years ago shouldn't stop you from making good decisions now. If you let pride stop you, you will hate life 5, 10, and 20 years from now for the same reasons.

The downstream effects are unknown. Do your best and hope for the best. If you're improving the world-however you define that-consider your job well done.
Tim Ferriss
There are no statues erected to critics.
Tim Ferriss
The decent method you follow is better than the perfect method you quit.
Tim Ferriss
People don't want to be millionaires - they want to experience what they believe only millions can buy.
Tim Ferriss
I'm often asked how I define success. It's an overused term, but I fundamentally view this elusive beast as a combination of two things - achievement and appreciation. One isn't enough: Achievement without appreciation makes you ambitious but miserable. Appreciation without achievement makes you unambitious but happy.
Tim Ferriss
The commonsense rules of the real world are a fragile collection of socially reinforced illusions.
Tim Ferriss
Learn to be difficult when it counts. In school as in life, having a reputation for being assertive will help you receive preferential treatment without having to beg or fight for it every time.
Tim Ferriss
Most people are fast to stop you before you get started but hesitate to get in the way if you're moving.
Tim Ferriss
Poisonous people do not deserve your time. To think otherwise is masochistic.
Tim Ferriss
When you elevate the heels more so than you elevate the sole of the foot, you trigger a cascade of compensations in the knees and hips that cause tight hip flexors, and then those hip flexors cause lower-back pain.
Tim Ferriss
I do not equate productivity to happiness. For most people, happiness in life is a massive amount of achievement plus a massive amount of appreciation. And you need both of those things.
Tim Ferriss
Tomorrow becomes never. No matter how small the task, take the first step now!
Tim Ferriss
Happiness has a very short half-life.
Tim Ferriss
Compile your to-do list for tomorrow no later than this evening.
