Today's guest is a best-selling author, an entrepreneur who has founded 20+ companies, is a hedge-fund manager, a comedian, podcaster, and a national Chess Master… And in his book, Skip the Line, he debunks why blindly following what most people do - that is to fall in line, spend 10,000 perfecting a craft and to not question the status quo - keeps them stuck.
We talk insecurities, going bankrupt, fighting writer's block, and he even tells some jokes… you have to hear this story. So please help me welcome to the We Do Hard Things Podcast, James Altucher.
