Understanding the importance of saving
Never underestimate the hard work and lower probability of success, just because we are shown more successful people than many more actual failures.
It does not mean, in any way, that you should not dream big. It just says that don't get overawed by the number of success stories you read and assume that success would be easy. No one prints the failure stories.

If you ever find yourself in a tight unanimous group, you must speak your mind, even if your team does not like it, and even if it means risking expulsion from the warm nest.
And if you lead a group, appoint someone as devil's advocate.
He or she will not be the most popular member of the team, but definitely the most important.

Send an email to 10,000 people with the stock market predictions by dividing them into 2 groups - telling reverse prediction to each group. Prediction for one of the groups will come true.
Send a new prediction to the 5,000 whom you predicted correctly earlier - again after dividing them into 2 groups...carry on like this, and the last 100 would consider you as a genius. People get inducted into a decision based on history without thinking logically.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
