    How do you develop authority to deal with people?

    There are two types of people: those you can mess with, and those you cannot. They respectively look like this: I don't think many people would mess with JK Simmons from Whiplash. On the other hand, Steve Carell would probably have some problems to get some respect, in a school, for example...

    Are IQ (Smarts) and Success Correlated?

    European Fastlane Summit

    MEETUPS 
    One of the things I have learned this year is the importance of getting to know like-minded people. Not only for business purposes, but personal purposes too. Money is not everything. Life is 10000X better with friends. With that in mind, I was thinking about organizing a European Fastlane...
