Caring
No organization cares about you. Organizations aren't capable of this.
All economics is local
The media tries to report on the world economy or the national economy, or even the economy in Detroit or LA. This is easy to talk about, statistically driven and apparently important to everyone.
Agency
A door is not responsible if it swings and hits you in the nose. Neither is the hand of the guy who punched you.
The hard part (one of them)
A guy asked his friend, the writer David Foster Wallace, "Say, Dave, how'd y'get t'be so dang smart?"
Hard work vs. Long work
Long work is what the lawyer who bills 14 hours a day filling in forms does.
What's the point of popular?
You'd think that it's the most important thing in the world. Homecoming queen, student body president, the most Facebook friends, Oscar winner, how many people are waiting in line at the book signing...
Seeing the truth when it might be invisible
I’ll believe it when I see it. This is a problem.
What's high school for?
Perhaps we could endeavor to teach our future the following:
Turning the habit of self-criticism upside down
Perhaps this sounds familiar: When it's time to write a resume or talk to a boss or discuss a project glitch with colleagues, the instinct is to spin, to avoid a little responsibility, to sit quietly. Put a best face forward, don't set yourself up.
Buying an education or buying a brand?
It's reported that student debt in the USA is approaching a trillion dollars, five times what it was ten years ago.
