Notes:
- Arete is a concept in ancient Greek thought that, in its most basic sense, refers to "excellence" of any kind. This meaning was related to the idea of the fulfillment of purpose or function, the act of living up to one's full potential.
- In his early twenties, Mckeel planned to be a Russian Orthodox priest. He earned his master's degree in theology from Saint Vladimir's Orthodox Seminary in Yonkers, New York.
- Why McKeel tracks everything:
- "I noticed that people who accomplished a lot kept track of their life." He tracks: sleep, exercise, diet, goals, and more
- Think, "What am I trying to do?"
- "We are in the golden age of habit formation."
- "The best leaders are constantly looking for better ways to do things."
- "Intrinsic motivation is imperative for happiness."
- "I'm inspired by what I see in others." -- The spirit of the craftsman
- "I noticed that people who accomplished a lot kept track of their life." He tracks: sleep, exercise, diet, goals, and more
- In 1999, Hagerty had 35 employees... They now have 1,600.
- The lightning bolt moment - McKeel went to a YPO branding conference at Nike. And learned about how Nike viewed branding.
- "Nike is the spirit of the sport." -- Think more like a club than a company.
- McKeel created a membership organization and media brand as part of his business.
- Leadership "Must-Haves"
- Growth mindset - you are not a finished product
- "I don't believe in work-life balance. You get life."
- Curiosity in the interview process
- They need to understand what they will need to learn along the way
- The power of YPO:
- 30,000 members
- It's operational leaders doing work with people
- It's a wholistic view of life
- The Learning Leader Show is tightly in line with YPO
- In 2016, McKeel was elected Chairman
- Keys to a great YPO group:
- Holistic leaders (business, personal, family)
- Egos checked at the door
- Vulnerability and generosity are the keys to breakthrough leaders
- McKeel has interviewed some of the world's most notable leaders (Hillary Clinton, Sheikh Mohamed of Dubai, Paul Kagame, Prime Minister Lee of Singapore)
- His writing practice:
- General Eisenhower would sit alone and write out his thoughts... Ask yourself, "What's the narrative here?"
- Write summaries of what you learn from books, podcasts, videos, articles...

To Catch a Thief: North Korea On Our Payroll
By shows
American companies are being infiltrated—not by hackers breaking in, but by workers. Thousands of North Korean operatives are applying to jobs across the U.S.—and getting them. They are embedding themselves at Fortune 500 companies. Government agencies. Critical infrastructure. Even the firms tasked with stopping this threat. To Catch a Thief: North Korea On Our Payroll is a first-of-its-kind audio documentary exposing this global labor pipeline—one that is quietly funneling hundreds of millions of dollars a year back to the regime, and its nuclear weapons program. Host Nicole Perlroth, bestselling author and former lead cybersecurity and digital espionage reporter for The New York Times, takes listeners inside this hidden network—from a rare, inside look at a North Korean IT worker on the job, to interviews with defectors who escaped it, to knocking on the doors of Americans hosting “laptop farms” on North Korea's behalf. Along the way, the series reveals how this playbook is creating a hiring freeze for American workers, in a challenging job market. And how it has metastasized—adopted by cybercriminal groups and fraud networks around the world—blurring the line between nation-state espionage and organized crime. To Catch a Thief is co-produced by Nicole Perlroth and Rubrik in partnership with Pod People. To Catch a Thief was written and produced by Nicole Perlroth, along with Khrista Rypl, T. J. Raphael, Rebecca Chaisson and Sam Gebauer. Additional thanks to Allie Pinel, Fendall Fulton, Krissy Clark, Cai Lee, Eunice Park and Aimee Machado. Editing and Sound Design by Erica Huang. Art direction and design by Ben Long, Gareth Strange and Sarah Burley at the John & Jane Agency, and support from John Leestma.
