I saw a video the other day by this dude with a sort of arrogant tone in his presentation. He claimed to have figured out the core of what makes certain people incredibly successful, unique, powerful, influencial and what sets them apart from the rest. His examples included the Wright Brothers, Apple, and a few other companies and people. The basic idea was this. At the core of what they all do, it was a belief or a collection of beliefs that guided ...
