@KayBallard My hair clip was a clear Goody (about a $0.50 value). I can get a new one, fortunately. But it's not helping this morning. ;)
|
|
Lost my favorite hairclip and now I feel lost. I know that's weird, but I've relied on her for years for bad hair days. :(

@fogfish More like we 'crashed' as in fell asleep. ;)
|
|
@fogfish Heh. We came to our senses. ;)
|
|
Okay. Time to drink lotso water, then go to bed. Isagenix day 1 = a wee bit hungry. Not crazy hungry. But hungry.
|
|
@reubstock yes.
|
|
@virc_B1LL Yeah. But what Gladwell talks about is how many ppl don't get opportunities b/c of silly things like birthdate and social class.

|
@spellrus Sprinkle alotta Outliers on Tracy's work. ;)
|
|
@spellrus Outliers...the one that just came out. I'm quite impressed with it. Reads a bit like Freakonomics with the usual Gladwell a-ha's!
|
|
As Gladwell points out, it's not about being smarter or better or working harder (tho that helps), it's about opportunity.
|
|
Then again, don't wait for anyone to knock at your door, either. I say put yourself in the way of those opportunities as much as possible.
|
|
So, don't be in awe or be envious of others' successes - be strategic and don't pass up those opportunities that knock at your door. ;)
|
|
Sorry...had to get that one right. I certainly can't 'seize' this new keyboard...ugh.

"(Successful people) are those who have been given opportunities-and who have the strength and presence of mind to seize them." Gladwel

@BJ I don't really do scales...but I love books that buck conventional wisdom and this one does an awesome job of it. ;)
|
|
