Come see Dave Lakhani speak about Persuasion in London!

I'm going to be speaking twice in the UK in October, the first event is at Ambar Hamid's Wealth Thing Seminar! This is an event that is focused heavily on persuasion, selling and building wealth. The line up of speakers is phenomenal. I'm very excited to see Ted Ciuba and Gary May both who'll speak at the event with me. If you haven't heard of Gary May yet, you need to watch this guy, he is a fast rising star in the sales training industry.

Come out and see me in London, I'll look forward to connecting with you!

In Nagrita Airport Tokyo Japan

I'm sitting here in the Nagrita airport Red Carpet Club, using free wifi that actually works and didn't drop my connection. I just got off of Skype with my wife and daughter with only couple of mild service interruptions and I plugged my laptop into a 110v outlet right at the counter.

This kind of ease of working while you travel makes travel outside the United States, particularly in Asia very compelling. I've accomplished more in 45 minutes that I typically do in two hours at a U.S. Red Carpet Club. Why? Well, plugs are at a premium, wifi costs $10 typically and it is very unreliable. I got kicked off my Tmobile connection in San Francisco 10 times in one hour.

If I were United, I'd make all my Red Carpet clubs this friendly and then I'd market them like crazy. I'd pay more to have this kind of ease of accessibility when I travel in the United States . . . but they are more concerned that you not bring in any outside food.

I'm off to Kuala Lumpur to speak for the next few days. But keep watching, I'm going to be in the United Kingdom in about two weeks and I'll tell you how you can see me there.

Tim Ferriss The 4 Hour Work Week Interview Download

Img_2440_2 It is rare to meet people that are really smart. You know the kind of smart where you just say . . . wow! I had an opportunity to interview Tim Ferriss author of The 4 Hour Work Week and he was just that smart. Better yet though, I got to meet him in person about a month ago in Texas and as sharp as he is in the interview, double or triple it in person. And a very nice guy who is quick to share ideas and resources.

Tim's book is a perfect companion to my book The Power of an Hour: Business and Life Mastery in One Hour a Week. Download this interview by right clicking this link and choose "save target as" to save the interview to your hard drive.

A lot of people including Donny Deutsch have been skeptical of Tim's 4 Hour Work Week concept but I disagree. Rather than saying it isn't possible, wouldn't it be smarter to implement everything you can and cut as many hours out of a week as possible? Mastering your time is one of the most important business and life skills you can develop.
