Could it be that the way to become one of the 2% is to just follow Steve Martin's advice: "Be So Good They Can't Ignore You"? 98% of people only kinda want it and the 2% who get it are the ones who put in the work to b

Cal Newport is not “peddling” anything. He’s a respected academic in computer science and has written 3 books a lot of people find immensely helpful. The beauty of a free economy is that you (and everyone else) has the choice to buy/re

Having read all ten of these books I can agree with the sentiment that i didn’t “regret” reading them, however describing them as “productivity” is a poor classification. Personal Effectiveness is a much better description. People often u

No, sadly I don't agree with the author's opening statement that they are: "dispelling a common leadership myth: that you should lead by example.” The article does nothing to "dispel" a myth . If anything

Really interesting insight that the $12K Stratasys does not get used ...! Are members of the hacker space charged per print? Do the "monoprice" grade printers get used much? Thanks!
