Story
The latest groundbreaking tome from Tim Ferriss, the number-one New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek. For the last two years, I've interviewed more than 200 world-class performers for my podcast, The Tim Ferriss Show. The guests range from super celebs (Jamie Foxx, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.) and athletes (icons of powerlifting, gymnastics, surfing, etc.) to legendary Special Operations commanders and black-market biochemists. For most of my guests, it’s the first time they’ve agreed to a two-to-three-hour interview.

Story
Most people believe that the best way to motivate is with rewards like money - the carrot-and-stick approach. That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction - at work, at school, and at home - is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world.

Story
In this stunning audiobook, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of "outliers" - the best and the brightest, the most famous, and the most successful. He asks the question: What makes high-achievers different? His answer is that we pay too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where they are from: That is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing.

Story
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.

Awesome Day Starter
Though it's not Tim Ferris reading, for a 45 minute listen, its an awesome summary, DEFINITELY worth the mere 2 bucks to buy it. Has great tips from business strategy & application, to fitness and lifestyle design. The part about the daily journal entries is a valuable addition to my daily journal practice. I've listened all the way through maybe 8 times over the past few days.
WORTHYYYYY! 👍

I purchase this book in hopes of being enlightened. After finally getting through it I found myself bewildered on what I just listened to. All In All I would not recommend this book.

Don't waste your time - poor writing/narration
What disappointed you about Tools of Titans: The Tactics, Routines, and Habits of Billionaires, Icons, and World-Class Performers?
The writing is awful. The editing is worse. The narrator has no idea how to pronounce things like "ketone" or "TED Talk (T-E-D talk)"
What was most disappointing about Osmosis Jones’s story?
It does a terrible dis-service to Tim Ferriss' work.
Would you be willing to try another one of Kerry O'Hallaron’s performances?
Never.
Any additional comments?
A poorly executed attempt to cash in on a real author's work.

Save your money..
The title is the same of the book and only after purchasing I realized it was not the full book. Why does audible and/or audible allow this to be sold? The author of this summary did not even seem to read the book himself. This is a waste of money and time. What an absolute ripoff!!

Not much use.
What would have made Tools of Titans: The Tactics, Routines, and Habits of Billionaires, Icons, and World-Class Performers better?
If it was more of a narrative. This note book style summary doesn't translate to audiobook at all.
What was most disappointing about Osmosis Jones’s story?
Not much value in the notes provided. I think I heard one thing I thought was interesting.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
not really.

Some books have to be read
The nuances of the interviews in this book are so important, they can’t really be summarized. But the book, you won’t get anything out of this summary. Some of the most important parts of this book are not in this summary.
