In this episode, we talk about Paul’s growing up in a small town in the US, eventually leading him into Strategy Consulting and pursuing a career at McKinsey and moving to NYC. It did not take long though until Paul felt that there is something missing and he started searching for an alternative to the “traditional path”. We discuss challenges and opportunities of living a life on the “Pathless Path”. Importance of curiosity and openness to exploring new things. The value of learning things you don’t like doing and why “under-optimising” can be super liberating. You will learn why Paul has no interest in travelling. You will learn how to deal with fear and invite it into your life. Low Slow Stupid Funway. You will also learn about the Income-to-struggle Ratio. We discuss the power of going for a walk without any destination and that - after all - all of life is uncertain. Paul describes how he reaches high energy states and a lot of happiness and you will learn about his diet and easy tips to stay fit. We talk about role models, people who influence us and books that have helped us to make sense of life and we conclude with tips and techniques on how to live a more present life.
