Breakthrough ideas are around the corner, says the Google co-founder. But most of us are failing to take a chance on them.
Pixar's Brad Bird on fostering innovation --
This week The McKinsey Quarterly asks: what does stimulating the creativity of animators have in common with developing new product ideas or technology breakthroughs? Apparently, a lot.
Never have a limit on your income --
If you sell pens for a living and someone orders a million pens, no problem! You just place an order with your manufacturer for a million pens, get them to the customer, and celebrate.
Psychology of Intelligence Analysis --
A classic in my library, examining the influence of bias on accurate analysis, among other things. Must read.
The 75 Skills Every Man Should Master --
A man can be expert in nothing, but he must be practiced in many things. Skills. You don't have to master them all at once. You simply have to collect and develop a certain number of skills as the years tick by. People count on you to come through. That's why you need these, to start.
Have a successful week and make sure to measure your progress.
