What the Great Scientists Had to Say about Personal Strength

Building Personal Strength

There's nothing easy about science. So when we consider the great scientists throughout history, it isn't surprising that some of what they had to say was about the kind of personal strength that served them well. It would serve us well, too. Here's a sampling from ten of the greatest minds of all time.

The Personal Strength of Open-Mindedness - Plato's "Allegory of the Cave"

Building Personal Strength

This artful claymation treatment of Plato's allegory painfully illustrates the limitations of the closed mind. Closed-mindedness isn't a byproduct of ignorance. I've known people with Ph.D.s who refused to consider a new concept. They doggedly defended what they were taught years ago, even though the new concept was more valid and more useful. It isn't easy to get so smart that it makes you stupid.

Maxwell Fallacy: stronger, yet simple

LDRLB

'At this point, you’re bound to be thinking that timeshare salespeople and insane strong men are extreme examples. However, this is exactly my point. These two examples are certainly outliers, but they’re still valid. And because they’re valid, the Maxwell definition is invalid. It is simple, but it is weak.

No Ego: How Leaders Can Cut the Cost of Drama, End Entitlement and Drive Big Results

Speaker: Cy Wakeman, M.S., CSP, President, Reality-Based Leadership

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

Why We Dream - A Brain-based Perspective

Building Personal Strength

Some time ago, I had this dream: I was in Mexico working with a local official to organize a high school basketball tournament. He was charging ahead enthusiastically, but I couldn’t get him to focus on the details of planning. I asked him how many teams would be playing and how many gymnasiums were available, and he brushed me off. I asked him how many referees he had arranged and how many days the tournament would run, and he didn’t see why these things were important.

'Shortly after any political or corporate scandal, the talk on the media immediately shifts to a discussion on bad leadership. Indeed, Jeffrey Skilling was a bad leader of Enron.
