(<a href=\"http:\/\/traceyarial.com\/blog\/4-hour-workweek\/\" target=\"_blank\">See my review of that book here<\/a>.) He also talks about practicing speeches to dogs, his efforts trying to meditate and the positive results of his volunteer efforts.<\/p>\n<p>If you like this discussion, you\u2019ll probably also enjoy some of the best Tim Ferriss interviews. They include two interviews with Queen\u2019s University graduate <a href=\"http:\/\/fourhourworkweek.com\/2014\/12\/18\/peter-attia\/\" target=\"_blank\">Peter Attia<\/a>, one with gaming expert and concussion healer <a href=\"http:\/\/fourhourworkweek.com\/2015\/07\/28\/jane-mcgonigal\/\" target=\"_blank\">Jane McGonigal<\/a> and another one with <a href=\"http:\/\/fourhourworkweek.com\/2015\/07\/15\/laird-hamilton-the-king-of-big-wave-surfing-plus-gabrielle-reece-and-brian-mackenzie\/\" target=\"_blank\">Gabrielle Reese, her husband and another guy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I like these conversations because they last for a long time\u2014up to 2 hours\u2014and yet they\u2019re really focussed on how people create successful businesses, lives and communities by changing their habitual routines.<\/p>\n<p>The interview with Peter Attia, for example, had me try out a three-day-long fast, which I\u2019ll be repeating every Easter to include Good Friday. Jane McGonigal spoke about how she used her gaming training to recover from a very serious concussion, which gave me some insight about what my daughter went through last year. Gabrielle Reese didn\u2019t get to speak as long as I would have liked, but she made some interesting points about her challenges with work life balance and the need for understanding and flexibility in a strong marriage.<\/p>\n<p>Tim Ferriss releases a new podcast interview with someone brilliant every week, and they\u2019re always worth listening to. I highly recommend subscribing.<\/p>\n<p>Oh yeah, and in one of his recent interviews, Tim mentioned that he wants to come to Montreal. I\u2019ve been asking everyone I know to invite him in 2016, but <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NextCityOrg\">@NextCityOrg<\/a>, can you also invite him for the 2017 Next City Vanguard?
