430: The Secret Society of Success with Tim Schurrer

My good friend Jody Maberry, who interviewed me about my book back in Episode #385, recently reached out about introducing me to a young man who’s just published his own new book. His name is Tim Schurrer and he is the author of The Secret Society of Success: Stop Chasing the Spotlight and Learn to Enjoy Your Work (and Life) Again. Tim says there’s a message getting a lot of airtime these days. It’s a message that says, to be successful, you have to step into the spotlight, climb the ladder, become the boss, or chase whatever version of success that’s been dangled in front of you. But what if, Tim asks, there’s another way? What if fame, money, and power aren’t all that we should be chasing? In his new book, Tim invites you to reevaluate your definition of success and learn a new, freer way to go about achieving it. How do you learn this approach? With the Secret Society as your guide—a community of people who know how to make an impact, whether they have the spotlight or not. I hope you’ll click the play button below to learn more about Tim and his work. For a summary, just keep scrolling.
