Optimal Living Daily: Reading you the best content on personal development, productivity, and minimalism. Episode 37: On Failing Gracefully by Colin Wright of ExileLifestyle.com (Why Failure and Losing is a Must for Personal Development and Growth). Colin is a professional author and international speaker, co-founded a publishing company, and travels full-time, moving to a new country every four months or so--that country determined by the votes of his readers! He also blogs. Colin's a minimalist in that he owns very few things and is careful in how he consumes. He tends to buy less, but invest in quality when he does, and trends toward the same in relationships, business endeavors, and just about everything else. He's left-handed, blue-eyed, scary good at Tetris, and can’t cook worth a damn. The original post is located here: http://exilelifestyle.com/failing-gracefully Please Rate & Review the Show!

Optimal Living Daily: Reading you the best content on personal development, productivity, and minimalism. Episode 36: The Shockingly Simple Math Behind Early Retirement by Mister Money Mustache of MrMoneyMustache.com (How to Retire Earlier). Mr. Money Mustache is a thirty-something retiree who now writes about how we can all live a frugal, yet awesome, life of leisure. He and his wife studied engineering and computer science in Canada, then worked in standard tech-industry cubicle jobs in various locations throughout the late ’90s and early 2000s. Then they retired from real work way back in 2005 in order to start a family. This was achieved not through luck or amazing skill, but simply by living a lifestyle about 50% less expensive than most of their peers and investing the surplus in very boring conservative Vanguard index funds and a rental house or two.
