Outliers

Aug. 24, 2010

I got a package mailed to me from a good friend of mine, Andrew, from San Fransisco. It was a book, Outliers. He sent it to me because while reading the second chapter, he thought of me. This was the first time anyone had ever sent me a book. My motto was, “If the book was that good… They would make a movie of it!!!” lol

Well, my wife finished the book twice before I had even started reading it. This book was amazing. It talks about how you can master anything if you put your TIME and energy into it. Chapter 2 looks into the advantages of being born in certain months and success in sports, eg. Ice hockey, soccer. And how bands like the Beatles and companies like Microsoft didn’t happen over night. It also looks into great minds and how high IQ scores don’t always equal great success and fortune.
I definitely recommend you go out and buy this book or give me a call… I’ll lend you my copy!!!
