James Altucher | 10 Ideas a Day Can Change Your Life #56
In this episode of Built for Growth, I sit down with author, entrepreneur, and podcaster James Altucher for a wide-ranging, thought-provoking conversation. We dive into James’ powerful practice of writing 10 ideas a day to strengthen your “idea muscle,” why obsession is often the real driver of greatness, and how experimentation can shortcut the so-called “10,000-hour rule.”James also opens up about losing everything, battling depression, and rebuilding his life through creativity and curiosity. We explore his contrarian stance on education and college, his journey through stand-up comedy, and his belief that luck is something we create through daily habits.This conversation is packed with tools, inspiration, and fresh ways to think about life, success, and personal growth. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, athlete, or simply curious about expanding your potential, this episode will give you practical insights and the courage to think differently.I use EnergyBits spirulina and chlorella every day to boost focus, recovery, and overall health—and now you can too.Use code MIESHA at checkout for 20% off your order.https://energybits.com/discount/MIESHA?rfsn=8823566.1b372b0&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=8823566.1b372b0Connect with Miesha: IG: https://www.instagram.com/mieshatate/X: https://x.com/mieshatateFB: https://www.facebook.com/mieshatatefanpage/Website: https://mieshatate.com/Connect with Built For Growth Podcast:IG: https://www.instagram.com/builtforgrowthpodcast/FB: https://www.facebook.com/people/Built-For-Growth-Podcast/61567354560939/Connect with ENERGYbits: IG: https://www.instagram.com/energybits/Website: https://energybits.com/Connect with James: IG: https://www.instagram.com/altucher/?hl=enChapter Markers:00:00 – Introduction to James Altucher02:00 – Training your idea muscle: 10 ideas a day07:00 – Doing hard things & building resilience11:00 – Obsession as the path to mastery18:00 – James’ story of losing everything & rebuilding24:00 – Education, homeschooling, and rethinking college36:00 – Taking risks vs. playing it safe40:00 – Stand-up comedy, experiments, and failure as growth48:00 – Why experimentation beats the 10,000-hour rule53:00 – Life experience over career titles01:12:00 – Creating your own luck with ideas01:25:00 – Final thoughts on happiness, money, and meaning#JamesAltucher #BuiltForGrowth #IdeaMuscle #EntrepreneurMindset #PersonalGrowth #Experimentation
