The 'mob' is convinced someone else is responsible for motivating each and every one in the 'mob'.

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

I used to write a lot about the 'mob'...

  • wrong thinkers
  • chronic complainers
  • narrow minders
  • finger pointers
  • frowners

...people who are just going through the business motions.

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

People are genetically similar; people are radically different. Sometimes people differences lead to amazing results; sometimes people differences lead to mayhem. 

If we had cans of clone spray then we could take turns using them on one another. Wouldn't that improve communication?

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

I've read there are 3 types of knowledge:

  • knowledge we know we know
  • knowledge we know we don't know
  • knowledge we don't know we don't know

If we didn't have those things we know then everything would be unknown.
