What I learned from reading Michael Jordan: The Life by Roland Lazenby.
Two quick things before we jump into this podcast.
Number one, this book changed my life.
I read this book and I made this podcast almost two years ago.
I'm reposting it today in case you missed it the first time.
If you already heard it, it's worth listening to again.
And number two, I recommend you sign up for the private AMA feed that I have.
I've been making short episodes every week based on questions that I get from other members.
If you become a member, you'll be able to ask me questions directly.
There's actually a private email address that you get access to in the confirmation email.
I read every single email that comes in myself.
You'll also be able to learn from questions, the questions of other members, and you can also add your name and a link to your website with your question so other members can check out what you're working on.
That feature alone is worth the investment.
I've made 27 of these episodes so far.
You can get access to them right now.
When you become a member, you can actually join by using the link that's in the show notes in your podcast player, and you can also find it@founderspodcast.com dot it took the fewest of words to set him off, sometimes nothing more than the faintest trace of a smirk.
He was also capable of making things up, conjuring up on a front out of thin air.
That's what they would all realize afterward.
He would seize on apparently meaningless cracks or gestures and plunge them deep into his heart until they glowed radioactively, the nuclear fuel rods of his great fire.
Only much later would the public come to understand just how incapable he was of letting go of even the tiniest details.
Many observers mistakenly thought that these affronts were laughable things of Michael's own manufacture little devices to spur his competitive juices, and that he would jokingly toss them aside when he was done with them after he had rung another sweaty victory from the evening.
