Who wouldn't want a phone that seamlessly integrates with your favorite online shopping experience? Better yet, enhance it with cool features that no other phone can match, such as a 3-D display. No doubt, there was nothing quite like the Amazon Fire phone. A year later, Amazon Fire was discontinued and remains the company's biggest hardware flop to date. Not a big online shopper? More of an explorer? How about a phone that is connected to a proprietary network of satellites, so that even when trekking through the remotest rainforests and driest deserts, home is just a call away.

If that didn't convince you a new era was dawning, what could? Iridium filed for bankruptcy nine months later.

The Writing Cooperative

The list of five-star failures can—and does—fill entire books. Tales of smart, wealthy, self-confident elites making spectacular mistakes make for good reading. Even the innovation greats sometimes mistake white space in the market for white space in people's lives. The former lives in abstraction or maybe in a marketer's segmentation, but only the latter is a valid indicator of innovation opportunity.

Sometimes, market white space is blank for a reason: It exists theoretically but not in reality. The valuable pivot for innovators to make is from the white space in the market to the white space in people's lives. When marketers train their attention on the circumstances of struggle that complicate personal and professional routines, previously hidden opportunities emerge. In today's world, companies grow from startups to unicorns by addressing the white spaces in consumers' lives. In the digital age, music companies were finding themselves in an unfavorable position as more and more consumers turned to online piracy, an unintended consequence of the internet's promise of democratizing knowledge.

The companies famously took legal action against Napster and shamed fans as thieves. Innovators responded differently. Apple introduced iTunes to deliver legally purchased music directly to users' iPods. Then came Daniel Ek, founder of Spotify. Ek recognized consumers' desire for effortless accessibility, endless exploration and social sharing. Spotify offered all the tracks music fans wanted, unlimited, for a monthly subscription fee. By removing the hassle, cost and cumbersome steps of paying per track, Spotify created a platform that offered a global music library with curated playlists—democratizing consumers' access to music.

More than million active Spotify users have embraced this vision. Just kept at it with persistence as customers trickled in. Great article lads. One of the primary attractions for me to the precepts of the 4HWW is not massive wealth, but rather the freedom of time, and not just for the here-and-now, but also in the future when I am ready to settle down and start a family. All the effort I have put towards improving my dating life was meant to lead up to that, and it is reassuring to know that work and organisation can lead to an even more fulfilling family life later on.

Find a Greek Myth

I find that very empowering! Thanks Tim and Brandon for the very interesting post. Thanks for sharing your story. I was smiling the whole article, because I can feel how you feel when you have so much time. Went back and read the original post………. Or just put it out there?

Also… I tell people to track everything they do at 15 minute increments whenever they tell me how busy they are. Amazing how many people shut up right there; because they know they played solitare, farmville, and watched 2 hours of TV in their busy, busy evening. I started doing that 25 years ago, and it made a big difference in keeping me focused. I just created the program for myself and when I noticed other teachers wanting to use it, I thought I might turn it into a business.

The muse, when it comes to men

Thanks- and good luck. BTW, my kids are grown and gone now; I think the ages your kids are at is the best. Enjoy your time with them now, because they will start pulling away as they should, and as we all did. This family and some others that posted are travelling, and that helps a lot in self improvement. What I think is troubling is the problem to economics as a whole.

If everybody starts working 4 hours, the economy will be about 10 times less efficient than it could be. Maybe today people are wasting 36 hours of their work week and so the economy will just suck the in the same way. But if people work smart and for more than 4 hours, productivity can improve, and we have a better shot of getting rid of hunger and basic health issues around the world.

I get a little choked up in writing this, but I finally have to post to your blog. I am the guy in this post. I have 4 children and am blessed that my business allows me down time during particular seasons. Yet, when things heat up, I am running and gunning and far from automation.

I am struggling to get my muse off the ground right now, but look forward to being one of your case studies by Ideas appreciated. I built the site myself, as I was a programmer, so no upfront costs. Customers slowly trickled in as I studied how to spread the word and run a business. There is no secret formula.

Just diligence, persistence, and patience. Definetely you should spend more time having sex, it might replace a few hours of excercise, meditation, relaxing and bonding with your wife. All in one, plus its really good XD. I remember reading about your case study before. Thank you for putting this outline together. Fantastic to see what can actually be accomplished with our time. Congrats to you and your beautiful family. Last year I worked 3 months as an IT consultant, the rest of the time I could do pretty much what I wanted: 1 spend time with my kids, 2 write a book, 3 take an NLP certification, 4 help and inspire other people to live the 4HWW.

One positive side effect of our life and economy is that my girlfriend has been able to take an extended leave from her work and just be with the kids something she is very passionate about doing instead of leaving them with daycare while working her ass off for — sigh — money. I did the same in moving to Costa Rica a little over 2 years ago via Web Development. We have two little ones 3yrs and 3 months — thanks for the great example.

Inspiring guys! Great work on the homeschooling. Great post. I learned when creating products the best ones are the ones you create for yourself. Your business almost seems like it is close to running itself if you are spending that amount of time on it. Glad it is working out for you and that you are able to balance it with your family life. Personally, I prefer it to be unscheduled. That was a very encouraging and inspiring post! With three young kids as well 1, 3 and 5 , getting the 4HWW model launched is a priority and also harder than preferred.

Thanks for being a trail-blazer and sharing your journey with the rest of us behind you on the path! But why we live. Brandon, thank you for the inspiration to me to make life an adventure. Thanks for the inspiration! Reading inspiring case studies like this definitely helps to get my butt into gear and work on making my own muse a success.

The Nine Muses of the Greek Mythology

Great case study. But the analyst in me wonders about the longevity of spending only a few hours a week on a business that inherently seems to have very few barriers to entry online services. Do you really only worry about competition and work on growth for less than 1 hour a day? Do you trust that you have enough of a moat that your revenues will either keep growing or stay the same forever? I worked 50 hour weeks for years to build the site to where it is. The 4-hour workweek came after it brought in enough for me to hire other people to worry about that stuff for me.

I bought your book 5 or 6 years ago from an airport bookshop and read it cover to cover on the flight to Sydney. It opened my eyes to the possibilities beyond 60 or 70hour weeks running my own business in the construction industry.

We are currently in Bali, 3 months into our first leg as a traveling family and despite the challenges we are moving forward together, learning by living in fun. I am a single mom of 2, and I own my own business that is thriving after only 1 year. Throughout , I felt a pull to live- really live, and not the conventional way that everyone expected me to.

I had gotten out of a horrible marriage, and I felt like I got a 2nd chance at life- why waste it conforming? I began making plans in November to take my 2 small children now ages 2 and 4 to live in Cozumel for the summer, so I have been taking steps towards doing that for a couple of months. I just found 4HWW on a travel blog and I was happy to find out that I was making the correct steps toward my goal.

It was eye-opening, enlightening, and exciting. Does my travel have to end after Cozumel? Of course not… This will just be the trial run. And instead of my kids reading about other places in text books, they will live it. Touch it.
