Jim rarely does interviews, which makes this conversation especially meaningful.We explore encodings, the deepest intrinsic capacities that shape who we are, what it means to get in frame, and why even doing what we love comes with a cost.As Jim says, What to Make of a Life is “not a self-help book. It’s a self-knowledge book.”Thrive Global Article: Jim Collins on What to Make of a LifeAbout Our Guest:Jim Collins has published multiple international bestsellers that have sold in total more than eleven million copies worldwide, including the perennial favorite Good to Great.
