Feel free to forward along if the spirit moves you. â This edition is brought to you by [Sundays for Dogs](. Be sure to see their offer in the P.S. â
What Iâm rereading â[A Pickpocketâs Tale: The spectacular thefts of Apollo Robbins](=)â by [Adam Green](=) (The New Yorker). This was sent to me by [Jeffrey Zurofsky]( (âJZâ from [The 4-Hour Chef](). Hereâs one paragraph to give you a taste: âWhen Robbins hits his stride, it starts to seem as if the only possible explanation is an ability to start and stop time. At the Rio, a manâs cell phone disappeared from his jacket and was replaced by a piece of fried chicken; the cigarettes from a pack in one manâs breast pocket materialized loose in the side pocket of another; a womanâs engagement ring vanished and reappeared attached to a key ring in her husbandâs pants; a manâs driverâs license disappeared from his wallet and turned up inside a sealed bag of M&Mâs in his wifeâs purse.
ââ
Pair this with Apolloâs TED Talk â[The art of misdirection](=),â one of the 20 most-viewed TED Talks of all time, to see Apollo in action. â
Documentary Iâm watching â[In Search of Greatness](=). This documentary thematically fits into a lot of the reading Iâm currently doing. The official description: âThrough the eyes of the greatest athletes of all time, In Search of Greatness is a cinematic journey into the secrets of genius. From award-winning filmmaker [Gabe Polsky](, this groundbreaking feature documentary includes original interviews with Wayne Gretzky, PeleÌ, and Jerry Rice. It also features Muhammad Ali, Einstein, David Bowie, Serena Williams, and Michael Jordan, among others.â You can [watch the trailer here](=). Gabeâs earlier [Red Army]() doc is also fantastic. â
Exercises Iâm doing â[Legendary 86-Year-Old Physical Therapist Dr. Shirley Sahrmann Demonstrates Her Morning Exercises](=). Many of you asked for a video demonstration of Dr. Shirley Sahrmannâs morning exercises that she mentioned in our podcast. Her new [demonstration video](=) is a great addition to [the longer episode](=), in which we discussed low-back pain, movement as medicine, and much, much more. â
What I finished writing âCurious what I and 5BF subscribers have found most interesting this year? I collected and curated the 25 most popular items from 5-Bullet Friday so far this year in a short blog post here: â[25 of My Favorite Books, Articles, Gadgets, Tech, and More (So Far in 2023)]().â â
Quote Iâm pondering âIn order to change skins, evolve into new cycles, I feel one has to learn to discard. If one changes internally, one should not continue to live with the same objects. They reflect oneâs mind and psyche of yesterday. I throw away what has no dynamic, living use.ââ

You can complement this edition of 5-Bullet Friday with blind magician [Richard Turner](=) showing me mind-blowing card tricks, [Derek Sivers](=)âs advice on how to reinvent yourself, and this weekâs interview with Levels co-founder [Sam Corcos](=) on creating personal and business leverage with tools, systems, and processes.
â
And, as always, please give me feedback on Twitter. Which bullet above is your favorite? What do you want more or less of? Other suggestions? Please let me know. Just [send a tweet to @tferriss](=) and put #5BulletFriday at the end so I can find it.

Have a wonderful weekend, all.

Much love to you and yours,

P.S. Deal of the Week â 35% off [Sundays for Dogs](), ultra-high-quality dog food without the prep or mess. I want to give my pooch, Molly, the best of everything. This is especially true when it comes to the ingredient quality of her food. But most healthy dog foods are an expensive, frozen mess. Theyâre a hassle to thaw and serve, and the prep work eats up time Iâd rather spend hiking with Molly. [Sundays for Dogs]() solves my problem with air-dried, high-quality dog food I can store and pour right from my pantry.â
â
âThe magic behind [Sundays for Dogs]() is in their proprietary air-drying method. To lock in nutrients, they gently dry the meat, low and slow. Unlike other dry brands, which are filled with hyper-processed grains and synthetic vitamins, [Sundays for Dogs]() uses only all-natural poultry and USDA-grade beef. Meat makes up 90% of their recipes. The other 10% are fruits and veggies, ingredients youâd find at the farmerâs market and not at the pharmacy.
â
ââ[Sundays for Dogs]() and I have worked out a special deal just for my subscribers. Get 35% off your first order of Sundays for Dogs by going to [SundaysForDogs.com/TIM]() or by using code TIM at checkout.
