  • Why New Zealand is the best place in the world to raise a kid
  • How to adapt your values to your current situation
  • The secrets to becoming a great speaker
  • What still terrifies Derek about speaking on stage
  • The best way to write a book
  • The value of self-publishing and retaining your copyrights
  • The importance of doing the opposite of your creative habits
  • What Derek’s latest book is all about
  • How your belief and perspectives change your actions
  • The barbell strategy of living in the extremes
  • Why graveyards are a great place to sleep
  • Useful beliefs about writing.
