Bestselling author and award-winning photographer Chase Jarvis argues that we don’t need gimmicky new life hacks or “productivity” gadgets; we already have what what’s necessary—all we need is to learn to leverage it.


Photographer, entrepreneur, and bestselling author, Chase Jarvis has collaborated with some of the world’s most successful athletes, entrepreneurs, performers, and artists. What’s the secret to a good life? he’s asked them. Is it having enough money in the bank? Chasing the right dream? Surrounding themselves with the right people? What are the secrets not just of success but of fulfillment?


In Never Play It Safe, Jarvis reveals the surprising answer: It’s not a new gadget, technique, or life-hack. It’s something much simpler. Instead of striving for external validation, the key is to look inside and leverage the tools already available to every single one of us.


By digging deep into the seven essential levers, Jarvis shows you how to get honest with yourself, unleash your own creativity, and build the life you’ve always wanted. Filled with stories and insights from some of the world’s top performers and thought leaders, including the author himself, Never Play It Safe will reshape how you think about attention, time, intuition, constraints, play, work, failure, and practice to help you achieve extraordinary results and become more creative, fulfilled, and successful every day.
