Philosopher’s Notes on Marie Forleo's Books

  • Locked Philosophers Notes

    Everything Is Figureoutable

    My wife Alexandra has been a huge fan of Marie’s for a long time. I knew she was awesome. But... As I told Alexandra: “I had no idea Marie was THAT awesome!!!” My excuse: I’ve been in hermit-mode and have done nothing but read books for 5 years (no blogs/videos/etc.) so I wasn’t able to get the full sense of Marie’s heroically brilliant and grounded and HILARIOUS power until this book came out. I’ve read and created PhilosophersNotes on well over 500 books. This is one of my ABSOLUTE (!) favorites of all time. I HIGHLY (!!!) recommend it. It’s in the same league as some of my other favorites like Deep Work Atomic Habits and The 5 Second Rule. (In fact, on my chalkboard right now, I actually have “EVERYTHING IS FIGUREOUTABLE” right above “5-4-3-2-1-GO!” ← Winning combo!) The book is PACKED (!) with Big Ideas and I’m excited to share a few of my favorites so let’s jump straight in!

    vs. “There’s No Way!”

    In our last several +1s (here and here and here), we’ve been exploring some of the Big Ideas from the TEN pages of notes I took at a recent First SOF Truth event I was honored to attend.

    As you may recall, Vice Admiral Szymanski gave us a new definition of resiliency as “being tough in the moment—every moment” while General Fenton stressed the importance of RELENTLESSLY trying to improve—training “over and over and over again until we never get it wrong.”

      As motivational speaker Michael Altshuler says, ‘The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot.’ There is no time fairy that’s going to swoop down and magically clear your calendar. Embrace the fact that if you were powerful enough to create an overcommitted and overstretched life, you’re powerful enough to uncreate it.
