The Most Powerful Asymmetries in Life

Sahil Bloom
About this episode

I define an asymmetry as something where the risk is limited but the reward is potentially significant. It's an action with an asymmetric return profile: If it doesn't work out, the cost is small, but if it does work out, the reward is large.


I've been keeping a running list of the most powerful asymmetries I've found—the tiny investments with potentially outsized returns.


This piece shares 44 asymmetric things you should be doing (across career, personal growth, relationships, health, and money). Choose 1-2 from each category to implement in the weeks.
