About this episode

Arnold Schwarzenegger is the former governor of California, a bodybuilder, actor, businessman, philanthropist, and bestselling author.

Moving from a small village in Austria to America, Schwarzenegger set out to conquer anything he could dream of. From his time as the world’s greatest bodybuilder, Hollywood’s leading action star, and the highest elected official in California, one mantra imparted by his dad helped him accomplish it all: “Be useful.” He distills the principles that lead him to the pinnacles of success across multiple disciplines, including the mantra, in his new book: Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life.
