'Welcome to my podcast: https://guylawrence.com.au This week my fantastic guest is fitness expert and entrepreneur Ben Greenfield. We discuss topics that Ben has not spoken of before including how he finally found his purpose, is hack to rule all hacks and one of his lowest point in life that later turned out be a blessing.

In reality, you know, I\'m a human performance consultant, blogger podcast or a nutritionist, speaker. Uh, you know, I, I own a supplement company where we kind of try to stay on the cutting edge of developing formulas for, you know, and he gets it in the body and then he has in the brain and you know, I\'d do some do some investing and some bitcoin mining and you know, so yeah. I mean like I can tell anyone. Yeah. I tell it a little ladies though that I\'m an author so their eyes don\'t cross over. Guy: Yeah, fair enough, mate. I\'m the one thing like is obviously like I\'ve seen you be following me for years made on the net, right? And, and what you\'re doing in euro is evolving. You\'re always growing, you\'re always doing that. But one thing I keep asking myself is how that, how the hell does he retain all this information? Like is there a secret formula to mate or do you, or does it just skip right past or what goes on in, in that mind yours? Ah, you Ben: know, I, I typically have a few rules set when I\'m learning. For example, I have a rule that when I\'m reading, I\'m not allowed to turn the page backwards ever or on the kindle, flip the page backwards. And that ensures that no matter what is on the page in front of me, I am reading with intention because I know I may never see it again. And that that\'s a huge boon for me. When I\'m kidding though, you know, I read about a book a day and for speed reading that helped tremendously. In addition for the, for the book a day peace, you know, reading is a muscle. The more that you do it, the better that you become at it. But I will generally review the table of contents, Skim each chapter, skim the index, skim the front, skim the back and then go through each chapter and tasks will expand to the time allotted. Ben: So I\'ll generally allow myself between about nine and 10 did you most of my evening reading, you know, I just have a little red light set up in the bed. You know, I don\'t have a, a, a, um, I don\'t have a completely absent social life or sex life. And so sometimes, you know, it\'s 10 to 11 or 11 to 12 sometimes depending on how the day happens to be. But I always finish with back. I always have a pen in my hand so I can circle anything or I\'ll use the kindle highlight and that helps me know that if I do see something very interesting, if I want to interview somebody about it on my podcast, I fold the page over and underline it or I highlight it on kindle. Um, that\'s, that\'s generally how I\'ll go about learning from books. I, if you see me working out, I will a lot of times have earbuds in.
