Simplicity Is Key
Looking and sounding smart to others can be easy. A lot of individuals have a great deal of common knowledge. The truth comes out, however, when you ask them a straightforward question. If they confuse matters too much, that’s not the most remarkable thing. “If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough, according to Albert Einstein.” Steve Jobs also said, “Simple can be harder than complex: to make it simple, you have to work hard to get your thinking clean.”
True Self
Although 70% of American workers hate their work and about a third of Americans say they’re satisfied, brilliant employees seem to enjoy their lives. This is because they have concluded that no one besides themselves can contend against them. They’re not trying to blend in. They’re not out to please anyone. Everything they aspire to do instead is live a life that they’re most inspired. So they’re themselves entirely.
