#38 - Douglas Vigliotti: Interview on The Gap (Part II)
In this episode of the, It’s Not What It Seems podcast, you’ll hear the second half of my brother Darron’s interview with me about my new book, The Gap: The Little Space Between What You Know and Don’t Know. In this interview, we go a little deeper into a few specific concepts within the book and discuss how to close gaps, identify gaps, and what’s “inside” the Gap.

Here’s a little more about the book:
Meet the Gap: the little space between what you know and don’t know. It's the thing sitting between you and what you want; it’s a small thing that amounts to everything.
Are you stuck in your career, relationship, education, or business? Maybe you’re frozen by the same old habits and opinions or trapped in the story you’ve been telling yourself for the last 20, 30, or 50 years? That’s okay. It’s normal. We only know what we know. We’re all stuck on something.
In a world overflowing with competing information, knowing who to turn to, what to watch out for, and what to focus on has never been more difficult. The Gap will help you turn obstacles into opportunities by identifying hidden forces and blind spots that prevent you from achieving your goals. Drawing on real-world examples, Douglas Vigliotti empowers readers with thought-provoking questions and simple strategies to cut through the noise of the information age, challenging you to look at the world from a whole new perspective.
In our conversation, we’ll discuss:
Strategies to keep in mind while trying to close gaps (16:11)
How to address gaps we aren’t even aware of (20:03)
Why I want you to be in “the gap” (23:16)
Two things I want to tell the world, “it’s not what it seems” (32:02)
