言ってはいけない 残酷すぎる真実
「身長の遺伝率が66%や体重の遺伝率が74%、そして、一般知能(IQ)の遺伝率が77%」とのこと。もし本当なら、子供の幼児教育/英才教育は、もはや両親の自己満足ですね。。。そして、ダイエットや体格を変えるビジネスの胡散臭さ。。。
他には、「アジア人の学力が高い理由が、セロトニン伝達能力が低いLL型遺伝子(不安になりやすい)ため、将来に対する不安を解消しようと、勤勉になりやすい」と。
Business for Punks bottles the essence of James’s methods in an accessible, honest manifesto. Among his mantras:
· Cash is motherf*cking king. Cash is the lifeblood of your company. Monitor every penny as if your life depends on it—because it does. · Get people to hate you. You won’t win by trying to make everyone happy, so don’t bother. Let haters fuel your fire while you focus on your hard-core fans. · Steal and bastardize from other fields. Take inspiration freely wherever you find it— except from people in your own industry. · Job interviews suck. They never reveal if someone will be a good employee, only how good that person is at interviews. Instead, take them for a test drive and see if they’re passionate and a good culture fit.
Business for Punks rethinks conventional business wisdom so you can go beyond the norm. It’s an anarchic, indispensable guide to thriving on your own terms.
