経歴と著者の歩み

Timothy Ferriss is an American author, entrepreneur, investor, and media host whose career grew out of an unusually experimental start. Educated at St. Paul’s School and Princeton University, where he earned a BA in 2000 and studied language acquisition and East Asian Studies, he has said that his nonfiction writing was shaped by Pulitzer Prize winner John McPhee and that his broader life philosophy was influenced by Nobel laureate Kenzaburō Ōe. After a brief sales role at TrueSAN Networks, he founded BrainQUICKEN in 2001 and sold the sports-nutrition company to private equity in January 2009. Ferriss later described the company’s growth, and the burnout it caused, as the pressure cooker that pushed him to rethink work, lifestyle, and ambition. ((https://tim.blog/about))
