“The Bottleneck is at the
          Top of the Bottle”

“Where are you likely to find people with
  the least diversity of experience, the
 largest investment in the past, and the
greatest reverence for industry dogma?

              At the top!”

      — Gary Hamel/“Strategy or
 Revolution”/Harvard Business Review
Children guessed (but only a
few) and down they forgot as up
they grew….

“Psychologists tell us that the mind is
under a continual bombardment of ideas,
all of which are trying to make an
impression on it. The prospect, therefore,
does not sit around with a blank mind,
calmly waiting for someone or something
to capture his attention without a
struggle.”

“Life is not a journey to the
    grave with the intention of
  arriving safely in a pretty and
well-preserved body—but rather
 a skid in broadside, thoroughly
  used up, totally worn out, and
loudly proclaiming, ‘Wow, what
