Some tips for effective living from a recent article on Tim Ferris's new book-Tools of Titans


  • Listening to Tara Brach’s “2010 Smile Meditation” first thing in the mornings, as many icons do;
  • Drinking pu-erh tea with one or two tablespoons of coconut oil for sustained energy;
  • Using apps and programs to take control of your digital life like Jumpcut (to manage your clipboard) F.lux (to manage screen-induced insomnia), Emailga.me (to get a hold on email overload), or Freedom (to block Internet access), and more;
  • Testing out The 5-Minute Journal for a week, five minutes in the morning and five before bed;
  • Consider the Chilipad device for sleep, or a simple pre-bed cocktail for insomnia: two tablespoons apple cider vinegar, one tablespoon raw honey mixed in hot water.
