On this episode, I'm joined by Dan Nicholson, the author of Rigging the Game: How to Achieve Financial Certainty, Navigate Risk, and Make More Money on Your Terms.

Dan is passionate about helping entrepreneurs end their suffering, and he shares his insights on how to do that through his book and this podcast episode. He talks about the challenge of constantly chasing more and how it can lead to taking ourselves out of the game.

We also discuss the importance of setting expectations based on average performance, rather than personal best in order to achieve financial success. Dan's fourth commandment is also explored, which is about not seeking the best of ourselves every single day, but pursuing a rolling average.

Finally, Dan shares how he had to unlearn much of what he had learned in business school in order to become an entrepreneur. He realized that he needed to optimize for the right things, not just more and more.
