“We all admire the courageous person and quite often consider the individual who lacks courage, a coward. However, that is not how Earl Nightingale saw it. He said the opposite of courage was not cowardness, it was conformity. The next time you are encouraged to fall into line, to be a sport and everything in you says no - be courageous and go your own way. There is no compensation in conformity.” WayPersonsSaidFallNextIndividualSportsLinesSawsOppositesAdmireCourageousCowardConformityNext TimeCompensationBe CourageousNightingales Author:Bob Proctor
“Outside observers often assume that the more complicted a piece of mathematics is, the more mathematicians admire it. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mathematicians admire elegance and simplicity above all else, and the ultimate goal in solving a problem is to find the method that does the job in the most efficient manner. Though the major accolades are given to the individual who solves a particular problem first, credit (and gratitude) always goes to those who subsequently find a simpler solution.” FirstsDoeProblemJobsIndividualGivenGoalPiecesParticularGratitudeMajorsSolutionsUltimateMathematicsMethodAssumingSimplicityCreditSolveAdmireEfficientMathematicianObserversEleganceUltimate GoalAccolades Author:Keith Devlin
