Duff McDonald: Tickled

from Conversations with Joan · host CYACYL

As many of us know, quite often life doesn’t go according to our plan. And when that happens we can be left scared, frustrated, and frazzled. Duff McDonald has explored what he calls the precision paradox – the struggle between our desire for ease and our need to exert control. Duff discusses how he let go of his attachment to precision so he could pursue the things that brought him joy. Duff is a New York Times best selling author who is a contributing editor at the New York Observer. He has also written for Vanity Fair, Esquire, Fortune, Time, Newsweek among other publications. His new book is, Tickled: A Commonsense Guide to the Present Moment. Music: www.purple-planet.com Show site: www.cyacyl.com
