Good Ideas From Any Source


"Absurdity. A statement or belief manifestly inconsistent with one's own opinion."

Ambrose Pierce
19th century American newspaper man/author


As are so many good quotes, a slight exaggeration, but the point is still made.

We do tend to discount things we don't ourselves believe. But the hallmark of any good leader is finding the best, no matter how different from what they believe.


How good at that are you?
