I was given a copy of Richie Norton’s book, The Power of Starting Something Stupid. I was intrigued by the title and the fact that Norton had written this book with his wife. Norton’s motivation for both the book and the principles he espouses within the book are born out of one of the greatest of tragedies – the loss of his newborn son. From this point of view, Norton walks the reader through the possibilities and potential that each of us have.

But according to Kiatpongsan and Norton’s study, the ideal multiplier in Israel is 3.6. “Everyone complains about the weather,” Mark Twain is supposed to have said, “but no one does anything about it.”
