Featured Book "How to Begin" by Michael Bungay Stanier

Episode Summary

Michael’s new book How to Begin: Start Doing Something that Matters is now available at www.HowToBegin.com.

Today is January 11th, 2022 – the day my new book, How to Begin: Start Doing Something That Matters, actually, finally, arrives in the world. This is probably no surprise to you, because I have been mentioning it on the podcast once or twice; so, today, I thought I’d bring you a short, but hard-hitting, interview with the author.

Welcome to 2 Pages with MBS! This is the podcast where Michael interviews Michael, about Michael’s book. You’ll hear him talk about:

Trialing the epiphany, “Hey, I might be a writer.” [1:34]
Why write about goals? [3:37]
The ambition for this book. [6:03]
