This week brings a chat between Mike and John Vespasian; an author, avid historian and endorser of “rational living” – definitely a chat for anyone wanting to improve their life, achieve their goals or anyone with an interest in history!
The chat begins with John explaining rational living using the example of Howard Carter & his discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb before delving into how having future goals that are too specific can be damaging, followed by John’s view on how people should approach career changes (especially when later in life), John’s definition of disruptions and how they are presented in his new book (link below), why John started writing, some of John’s travels, John’s favourite period in history, his stance on immigration, his recommendation for everyone to learn a second language & much more is all discussed!
