Once upon a time, two poor woodcutters were making their way home through a great pine forest. It was winter and a night of bitter cold. The snow lay thick upon the ground and upon the branches of the trees; the frost kept snapping the little twigs on either side of them as they passed; and when they came to the Mountain Torrent, she was hanging motionless in air, for the Ice King had kissed her.

This is a book about being proactive, not reactive. To have choices, you must find your own questions, or you will be merely adopting those of others who have found theirs. This is, therefore, also an audiobook about questions. By asking questions, I aim to assist you in generating your own and transforming your life into a series of questions. This is a book about questions, not about answers. I believe that asking the right questions is more important than finding the right answers.

The normal human way of doing things is rife with inefficiencies. It means starting a new writing project and blankly staring at your screen, waiting for inspiration to hit you. It means reading books at such a slow pace that you never have time to finish them in your busy schedule.

To become superhuman is to achieve superhuman memory, reading, and writing skills.
