I have a lot of stuff going on, and I feel like I'm super well aware of everything when I'm at inbox zero. It's helped me kind of find that balance, and just to be more productive.” – Chris Zarou EPISODE GUIDE (LINKS, QUOTES, NOTES, AND BOOKS MENTIONED) https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/chris-zarou2-outlier-academy-show-notes  FULL TEXT TRANSCRIPT https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/chris-zarou-outlier-academy-transcript  CHAPTERS In this episode, we deconstruct Chris Zarou's peak performance playbook—from his favorite book to the tiny habit that's had the biggest impact on his life.

He found and signed multi-platinum and Grammy award nominated rapper Logic, launching an incredible career. What's more incredible is that Chris did this after he was rejected from every major music label after trying to break into the industry as an intern. The common response that he got back was that he lacked enough experience. He even got a rejection letter from Def Jam, who later became the record label to sign Logic. 💌 FREE NEWSLETTER https://www.outlieracademy.com/newsletter 🎙 LISTEN ON iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/outlier-academy/id1523851182 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/58edVNgqaPNaCSGSxM6pef?si=88f37a5d20434775 Overcast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1523851182 ABOUT OUTLIER ACADEMY Learn timeless lessons on work and life from iconic founders, world-renown investors, and bestselling authors.
