Book 11 // Paul Epping and "Will I be You ?"

Chapters Of My Life Podcast

"You can create the future by being part of it” - Paul Epping Making the world better to understand exponential technologies and how to use it in a reasonable and conscious way is Paul’s quest for everyone on this planet. I had Paul Epping - Chapter lead of Singularity University - on my podcast. It’s fascinating to listen to his life story. From a nearly death experience in his teens over trying to understand human beings potential and its limits in the age of exponential technology is all about this podcast. As he emphasizes „disrupt what you want to disrupt - resistance is the change“ his chapters are a summary of this mindset. Paul choose 3 chapters in his Chapters Of My Life Podcast Book called “Will I be You?”. Chapter 1 called "Self Confidence” which Paul describes as pushing the envelope to its limits. Part of this was his near-death experience in water sport, to be precise at windsurfing in his young age. His repeatedly search for discovering the physical limits of the body with having an increased interest in varies of sports created the path for this later work - not in sport, but in finding the technology age to learn how to teach yourself to adopt while being conscious on yourself. During his work as a nurse later, his powerlessness in helping people with a psychological disorder characterized him for his later work in healthcare. Chapter 2 called “Applying” where Paul highlights his work in the 90s and early 2000s in understanding how technology can be applied for solving social problems and their interconnected approaches towards healthcare. Machines are biased by what they learn, the big question mark what Paul ask himself frequently is, where do machines learn from? Paul thinks holistically - the architecture of his life is holism. “Rediscover” is about Chapter 3 and it's about his current work among other as global traveller and consultant on exponential technology but also about Singularity University where he is Chapter lead in Dubai. In the next chapter of his life called “Awareness”, he emphasizes on raising questions of fragmentation on exponential growth but also on ethical science while empowering youth to become the scientist and change makers of tomorrow.

Right, where should I start? Imagine you need to write your life story in form of a book already. It’s a challenge itself and frankly, not everyone has thought of this, as we always think when we get older we should write about our life. But in fact, we have so many experience ready to share with others, achievements, failures to learn from, positive and negative life transitions which in the end lead to the person we are today. This "Chapters Of My Life Podcast" is an inspiring collection of life transitions packed into a podcast audiobook format capturing the willpower and belief of people during important life-changing decisions. We interview innovators, athletes, entrepreneurs and idealists give an insight into their past life from a young age till today and (future untold plans) covering topics around sports, entrepreneurship, mindfulness, travel, nutrition, spirituality, yoga & meditation and more - everything which leads to the person they are today.
