About this listen

What if the secret to greatness isn’t talent, but how you think?

Imagine channeling the calm discipline of Marcus Aurelius in chaos, the precision of Marie Curie in pursuit of truth, the inventive fire of Archimedes under pressure, the emotional genius of Shakespeare on the page, and the relentless artistry of Mozart in the face of rejection.

Think like the Greats is not a biography compilation—it’s your mental upgrade, built on the tested thinking patterns of the world’s most iconic performers, inventors, creators, and philosophers. These were not just individuals of talent, but of uncommon perspective—and this book decodes their mental frameworks for modern use.

Inside, you’ll uncover how to:

  • Strengthen Mental Clarity and Control: Apply Stoic reasoning from Marcus Aurelius to stay steady in a turbulent world.
  • Fuel Lifelong Curiosity and Grit: Embrace the scientific persistence and intellectual courage of Marie Curie to solve hard problems.
  • Think in First Principles: Adopt Archimedes’ radical approach to innovation and insight—not just solving problems, but reframing them.
  • Master Emotional Intelligence Through Story: Learn how Shakespeare used narrative to expose human truth and influence minds across centuries.
  • Produce at a High Level with Consistency: Unpack the rituals and resilience behind Mozart’s relentless creativity and output.

Whether you’re building a company, crafting your legacy, or just hungry to be better—the masters of history have already left the blueprint. This book hands it to you.

Stop following the average path. Start thinking like the greats—and create your own enduring masterpiece.
