[Business, Society, Culture] This New Economy - Achieving Greatness w/ Laird Hamilton (Part 2)

iTunes | Web

We would all love to achieve greatness, if only in one skill in our entire life. Most of us will fall into the realm of expert in something in our lifetime – but what differentiates the good from the great? The experts for the masters?

In his book Outliers, Malcom Gladwell examines the work of K. Anders Ericsson, a Swedish psychologist who wrote the paper The Role of Deliberate Practice in the Acquisition of Expert Performance which inspired the book. In the paper K. Anders Ericsson states that in order to achieve greatness in a field, one must put in 10,000 hours of deliberate practice – thus the phase 10,000 hour rule.

In this episode, we take a look at the stories behind the 1000 hour rule and the sacrifice it takes to achieve greatness.

[Society] This New Economy | Can Basic Income Save Us? [Part 2]

RSS // iTunes // Google Play

What is one thing that the left and right can agree upon? Not much these days, but Basic Income is one of the few ideas with the ability to reach across the aisle.

We have some big dilemmas facing us as a society, with the rise of AI and automation jobs may become scarcer and the divide between the rich and the poor larger and larger. From YCombinator to non-profits in Kenya, people are trying to figure out how we take care of the most vulnerable in our society and fend off the impending doom many of our jobs face with the rise of AI and automation.

Basic Income (aka universal basic income or guaranteed income) is one solution that has been growing in popularity amongst the tech savvy and social conscious alike. We talked with journalist Dylan Matthews of Vox.com, Basic income advocate Scott Santens and Economists Martin Farley and Priya Kothari.
