If YOU Doubt A Higher Power, You NEED To See This

Is there a way that you know to make my perspective on the world more interesting? >> It sounds like you spend a lot of time looking at business and self-help material. And I would say maybe you look outside Look at the great things outside of that area and see how they rhyme or how they resonate or how they

relate. Often we get great ideas from something having nothing to do with what we're actually interested in. We'll see some new thing. I would say start going to museums. You know, go to museums, look at the art, take the walking tour with the headphones, listen to the stories. Read the great literature. When I say the great literature, it's

not one single list, but if you ask around you'll find out. And if three people recommend it, definitely read it. [laughter] See the great movies ever See the great movies the you know, the greatest movies of all time. >> It's funny cuz when we're told how to become a good insert occupation we're

told to go study that occupation. Being a good lawyer, go study law. But often times it appears to be the case even with someone like Steve Jobs that they have these sort of rare things in their skill stack, like his love of design and typography. No one at university would have told him, "Okay, you want to be a great

computer programmer, go do typography design." >> Yeah. Yeah, and so usually what makes you good at what you do is not that you do it the same as everybody else. So, if everyone is reading the same books, they're going to have the same perspective. I would go outside. I would also recommend reading old books as opposed

to new books. Ancient wisdom is the best. Start very old. >> I mean, I've got some books here. >> Yes. Good choices. >> You're fond of these books? >> I love these books. >> Why? What did they give you? >> I first read the Dow when I was I had just moved to California.
