<p>To investors,</p><p>I am constantly on the hunt for good ideas. The best ones hit you like a ton of bricks and stay seared in your brain. They can improve the way you think, influence your behavior, and quite literally change your life.</p><p>I have found ideas like this from old books, new podcasts, tons of tweets, and many conversations with friends. Discovering one of these important frameworks, parables, or ideas feels like a big treasure hunt.</p><p>However, when I find one, I immediately write it down in my phone. The “Ideas List” is now hundreds of entries long and I scroll through it often.</p><p>Two years ago, I published my first book “<strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/0857199927/">How To Live An Extraordinary Life</a></strong>,” which had 55 letters I wrote to my children. Each letter covered one of these ideas and how I applied it to my life. <br /><br />The book became a best-seller, but the most rewarding part was hearing from thousands of people about the positive impact these ideas had on their life. The feedback was so energizing that I spent the last two years writing a “Volume Two” in the same series.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dkdC!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F83d09adb-cbb2-4b09-b591-df5e57f2750c_1122x1402.jpeg" target="_blank"><div class="image2-inset"><source type="image/webp" /><img alt="" class="sizing-normal" height="492.32442067736184" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dkdC!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F83d09adb-cbb2-4b09-b591-df5e57f2750c_1122x1402.jpeg" width="394" /><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image" tabindex="0" type="button"><svg fill="none" height="20" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-width="1.5" viewBox="0 0 20 20" width="20" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image" tabindex="0" type="button"><svg class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2" fill="none" height="20" stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-width="2" viewBox="0 0 24 24" width="20" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>This October, I will publish “<strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/How-Live-Extraordinary-Life-Two/dp/1804094153/">How To Live An Extraordinary Life: Volume Two</a></strong>.” It is full of the best ideas I have come across in the last few years.
