At its fundamentally flawed core, the aim of almost any learning program is to help us become who we are not.
Make work a purpose, not just a place.
Every human being has talents that are just waiting to be uncovered.
What works for one persons needs is almost always very different from the next.
Far too many people spend a lifetime headed in the wrong direction. They go not only from the cradle to the cubicle, but then to the casket, without uncovering their greatest talents and potential.
If we can find short-term incentives that are consistent with our long-term objectives, it is much easier to make the right decisions in the moment.
