My wife, Shauna, was talking with a friend one morning when the conversation turned to children. The woman spoke rather unkindly about a family she knew and of the problems some of the daughters had had. "What kind of parents would let their children do such things?" the woman asked very pointedly. My wife timidly suggested that we really ought not make those kinds of judgments. The woman replied, "No, what I mean is, there's no way my children would ever do those things." Shauna responded, "I hope you're right. But I wouldn't say that if I were you. Children can change overnight."

Greg McKeown, the guest on this week’s episode of All In, has taught the principles of “essentialism” to some of the biggest and most successful companies in the world, including Apple and Google.

I’d also be willing to bet that if you did have it memorized growing up, you silently repeated it right now, just to see if you still had it.
