Summary
Feeling stuck or in a rut? All you need to do is ask yourself the right questions. In this two-part episode, Bob Stewart and Chad Hyams take a cue from Tim Ferriss, entrepreneur, podcaster, and author of "The 4-Hour Workweek," as they break down 12 of his 17 boundary-pushing questions.
In this episode, we cover the following:
- What if you did the opposite for 48 hours? [4:00]
- What do you overspend money on? How can you scratch your own itch? [8:50]
- What would you do if you had 10 million dollars? What's your real target monthly income? [13:43]
- What are the worst things that could happen? Could you get back here if they did? [16:29]
- What would you do if you could only work two hours per week on your business? [21:01]
- What if you allowed people in your organization to make decisions up to $100? $500? $1,000? [23:55]

| 0:26.4 | and we're done and we get to say, oh, finally, I can't believe when we sat down and started |
| 0:32.3 | this. How far Wind Make Give has come an audience? Thank you. If I had a list of every one of |

| 1:31.2 | on. We just need to fill an hour and it's great in the background. But I mean, when you |
| 1:34.8 | know it ends and you don't have to care that season 9 sucked, but the last episodes were |
