Potential New Art of Adventure Project!
Also, I’d love to get some feedback from you guys – I’m working on the initial stages of a project for adventurous entrepreneurs (alluded to at the end of the show with Simon) to teach some of the skills that you need to succeed, but might not get from other technical based courses. I’m talking about skills such as body language, charisma, networking, productivity, and bio hacking. I’m also thinking this course might culminate in an adventurous retreat that would balance business workshops with activities like surfing, meditation, whitewater rafting, and yoga.
