01:01:02,666 --> 01:01:03,666 to tease our book review 32 01:01:03,666 --> 01:01:04,583 later in the episode. 33 01:01:05,125 --> 01:01:06,000 Hopefully one of these 34 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:06,916 quotes will speak to you 35 01:01:07,041 --> 01:01:08,041 as you kickstart your day 36 01:01:08,041 --> 01:01:09,333 in a positive direction. 37 01:01:10,416 --> 01:01:12,083 All right, the first quote 38 01:01:12,083 --> 01:01:13,833 is from singer Rod Stewart 39 01:01:13,833 --> 01:01:16,750 and he says, quote, "Life is so brief 40 01:01:16,958 --> 01:01:18,791 and time is a thief when you're 41 01:01:18,791 --> 01:01:20,250 undecided," end quote. 42 01:01:20,958 --> 01:01:21,708 This is a great quote. 43 01:01:22,125 --> 01:01:23,750 I mean, our time here is precious, 44 01:01:24,125 --> 01:01:25,500 so be confident when 45 01:01:25,500 --> 01:01:26,458 you pick the direction 46 01:01:26,458 --> 01:01:27,583 you want your life to head 47 01:01:27,583 --> 01:01:29,541 and then chase it tirelessly. 48 01:01:30,791 --> 01:01:31,875 And today's teaser quote 49 01:01:31,875 --> 01:01:33,291 from the book review is, quote, 50 01:01:33,583 --> 01:01:35,125 "In every work of genius, 51 01:01:35,125 --> 01:01:37,958 we recognize our own rejected thoughts. 52 01:01:38,541 --> 01:01:40,083 They come back to us with a 53 01:01:40,083 --> 01:01:41,791 certain alienated majesty," 54 01:01:42,375 --> 01:01:42,791 end quote. 55 01:01:43,416 --> 01:01:45,000 And as usual, we'll unpack 56 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:46,541 that here in just a few minutes 57 01:01:46,541 --> 01:01:47,791 during the book review segment, 58 01:01:48,166 --> 01:01:49,583 but first let's jump 59 01:01:49,583 --> 01:01:51,041 into our usual dose of fun 60 01:01:51,041 --> 01:01:51,958 and historic facts 61 01:01:51,958 --> 01:01:53,291 from this day in history. 62 01:01:54,791 --> 01:01:55,875 Today's news facts and 63 01:01:55,875 --> 01:01:59,333 birthdays are for February 27th. 64 01:01:59,333 --> 01:02:01,166 Starting back in 1814, 65 01:02:01,708 --> 01:02:02,708 that's when Beethoven's 66 01:02:02,708 --> 01:02:05,208 Symphony No. 8 in F Major, 67 01:02:05,416 --> 01:02:06,458 it premiered in Vienna. 68 01:02:07,416 --> 01:02:09,375 And this next fact is very close to one 69 01:02:09,375 --> 01:02:10,125 of my buddy's hearts. 70 01:02:10,583 --> 01:02:14,083 In 1827, the very first Mardi Gras 71 01:02:14,083 --> 01:02:15,708 was celebrated in New Orleans. 72 01:02:16,583 --> 01:02:19,291 Then skipping up to 1932, on this date, 73 01:02:19,583 --> 01:02:21,083 American actress Elizabeth 74 01:02:21,083 --> 01:02:22,708 Taylor was born in London. 75 01:02:23,916 --> 01:02:25,791 Also on this date in 1933, 76 01:02:26,541 --> 01:02:28,916 the neutron was discovered by English 77 01:02:28,916 --> 01:02:30,583 physicist James Chadwick 78 01:02:31,041 --> 01:02:33,250 and he was later awarded the Nobel Prize 79 01:02:33,458 --> 01:02:34,291 for his discovery. 80 01:02:35,208 --> 01:02:38,125 Then in 1940, Martin Kamen and Sam Rubin, 81 01:02:38,541 --> 01:02:39,375 they discovered the 82 01:02:39,375 --> 01:02:41,750 process of the Carbon 14 dating 83 01:02:42,375 --> 01:02:43,375 at the University of 84 01:02:43,375 --> 01:02:45,083 California Radiation Laboratory 85 01:02:45,458 --> 01:02:46,583 in Berkeley, California. 86 01:02:47,666 --> 01:02:49,791 Then in 1951 on this date, 87 01:02:50,041 --> 01:02:52,083 the 22nd Amendment was ratified. 88 01:02:52,458 --> 01:02:55,041 It effectively limits the number of terms 89 01:02:55,041 --> 01:02:57,416 that a US president can serve at two. 90 01:02:58,583 --> 01:03:01,541 Then in 1980, the song "I Will Survive," 91 01:03:01,875 --> 01:03:05,375 it won the first and the last Grammy ever 92 01:03:05,583 --> 01:03:07,708 for the best disco recording category. 93 01:03:08,833 --> 01:03:10,125 Then in 1991, US 94 01:03:10,125 --> 01:03:12,041 President George H.W. Bush, 95 01:03:12,041 --> 01:03:13,125 he ordered a ceasefire 96 01:03:13,125 --> 01:03:14,500 effective at midnight 97 01:03:14,500 --> 01:03:15,541 and declared victory 98 01:03:15,541 --> 01:03:16,750 in the Persian Gulf War, 99 01:03:17,083 --> 01:03:18,041 which was a conflict 100 01:03:18,041 --> 01:03:19,833 triggered by Iraq's invasion 101 01:03:19,833 --> 01:03:20,750 and occupation of 102 01:03:20,750 --> 01:03:22,791 Kuwait in August of 1990. 103 01:03:24,250 --> 01:03:26,500 Then in 1996 on this date, 104 01:03:26,583 --> 01:03:28,833 the first ever appearance of Pokemon 105 01:03:29,208 --> 01:03:31,458 happened in a role-playing video game, 106 01:03:31,958 --> 01:03:33,500 "Pocket Monsters, Red and Green." 107 01:03:34,375 --> 01:03:36,291 I have no idea what any of that means, 108 01:03:36,291 --> 01:03:37,625 but I do know the word Pokemon. 109 01:03:38,791 --> 01:03:40,333 All right, well, happy birthday. 110 01:03:40,333 --> 01:03:41,333 If today is your birthday, 111 01:03:41,333 --> 01:03:42,208 you share a birthday 112 01:03:42,208 --> 01:03:44,000 with actress Kate Mara. 113 01:03:44,375 --> 01:03:46,083 You may know her from "House of Cards." 114 01:03:46,625 --> 01:03:47,750 She's 42 today. 115 01:03:48,375 --> 01:03:49,666 And here we have it, 116 01:03:49,666 --> 01:03:51,041 my very first editorial 117 01:03:51,041 --> 01:03:52,750 correction from yesterday. 118 01:03:53,458 --> 01:03:54,375 Yesterday I said it was 119 01:03:54,375 --> 01:03:55,166 Josh Groban's birthday. 120 01:03:55,458 --> 01:03:56,583 Well, it's actually 121 01:03:56,583 --> 01:03:58,708 today on February 27th. 122 01:03:58,708 --> 01:04:01,041 So today, Josh Groban is 44. 123 01:04:01,833 --> 01:04:03,666 My apologies, Josh, call me back. 124 01:04:04,625 --> 01:04:05,291 And then finally 125 01:04:05,291 --> 01:04:07,208 retired LA Laker James Worthy, 126 01:04:07,416 --> 01:04:08,583 he's 64 today. 127 01:04:10,041 --> 01:04:11,083 And the number one movie 128 01:04:11,083 --> 01:04:13,166 on this date back in 1990 129 01:04:13,625 --> 01:04:15,916 was "Back to the Future 2." 130 01:04:16,666 --> 01:04:18,750 And no doubt, we all heard the math 131 01:04:18,750 --> 01:04:21,166 of how far back the original film went. 132 01:04:21,250 --> 01:04:24,625 It went 30 years back from 1985 to 1955. 133 01:04:25,458 --> 01:04:28,000 That's like going back today to 1995. 134 01:04:29,083 --> 01:04:30,625 But in the second film, 135 01:04:30,916 --> 01:04:32,625 Marty McFly went into the future 136 01:04:32,916 --> 01:04:35,500 and he went all the way to 2015. 137 01:04:36,875 --> 01:04:37,750 Well, in 30 years 138 01:04:37,750 --> 01:04:39,666 from now, it'll be 2055. 139 01:04:40,625 --> 01:04:41,500 Now that I'd be interested 140 01:04:41,500 --> 01:04:42,791 in seeing what's changed. 141 01:04:43,083 --> 01:04:43,708 Time will tell. 142 01:04:44,750 --> 01:04:45,750 And the number one song 143 01:04:45,750 --> 01:04:47,500 on this date back in 1979 144 01:04:48,458 --> 01:04:49,875 was "Do You Think I'm 145 01:04:49,875 --> 01:04:51,166 Sexy?" by Rod Stewart. 146 01:04:51,833 --> 01:04:53,833 Now this song was voted as 147 01:04:53,833 --> 01:04:55,375 the Rolling Stones magazines 148 01:04:55,791 --> 01:04:58,041 as one of the greatest 500 songs ever. 149 01:04:58,625 --> 01:04:59,666 And apparently it's 150 01:04:59,666 --> 01:05:01,125 about an awkward pickup. 151 01:05:01,916 --> 01:05:03,208 Yeah, I'd say that's pretty accurate. 152 01:05:03,541 --> 01:05:04,375 That's pretty awkward. 153 01:05:04,916 --> 01:05:06,583 And Stewart is quick to point out 154 01:05:06,583 --> 01:05:08,000 that the song is not about him. 155 01:05:08,916 --> 01:05:11,541 Also awkward is that Stewart admitted 156 01:05:11,750 --> 01:05:13,750 to unconscious plagiarism 157 01:05:14,041 --> 01:05:15,166 and also lifting the 158 01:05:15,166 --> 01:05:16,666 synthesizer riff in the song. 159 01:05:17,250 --> 01:05:18,916 And those issues were both settled 160 01:05:18,916 --> 01:05:19,958 amically out of court. 161 01:05:20,916 --> 01:05:22,333 But let's just go ahead and settle 162 01:05:22,458 --> 01:05:23,958 into some personal growth now 163 01:05:23,958 --> 01:05:24,583 in the book review 164 01:05:24,583 --> 01:05:25,875 segment of "Morning Serial." 165 01:05:26,583 --> 01:05:27,625 That's where we take a few moments 166 01:05:27,625 --> 01:05:28,875 to reflect on lessons learned 167 01:05:28,875 --> 01:05:30,166 from the current book we're reading. 168 01:05:30,625 --> 01:05:31,208 And currently we're 169 01:05:31,208 --> 01:05:32,291 reading through Dale Carnegie's 170 01:05:32,291 --> 01:05:32,958 "How to Win Friends 171 01:05:32,958 --> 01:05:33,833 and Influence People." 172 01:05:34,333 --> 01:05:36,000 It's a timeless book that is consistently 173 01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:37,166 in all the must read lists 174 01:05:37,166 --> 01:05:38,250 and it's packed with rock 175 01:05:38,250 --> 01:05:39,583 solid advice and actions 176 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:41,625 for us all to use and build healthy 177 01:05:41,625 --> 01:05:42,708 foundational concepts 178 01:05:42,708 --> 01:05:43,333 to live by. 179 01:05:44,291 --> 01:05:46,208 And yesterday we finished up chapter six 180 01:05:46,375 --> 01:05:47,791 which was entitled "A Safety 181 01:05:47,791 --> 01:05:49,250 Valve to Handle Complaints." 182 01:05:50,208 --> 01:05:51,666 And Carnegie revealed that, quote, 183 01:05:51,666 --> 01:05:53,625 "Most people trying to win others to 184 01:05:53,625 --> 01:05:54,416 their way of thinking 185 01:05:54,416 --> 01:05:56,333 do too much talking themselves 186 01:05:57,083 --> 01:05:59,250 in that we should let the other person 187 01:05:59,250 --> 01:06:00,250 talk themselves out, 188 01:06:00,750 --> 01:06:02,500 encouraging them to express 189 01:06:02,500 --> 01:06:04,291 their ideas fully," end quote. 190 01:06:05,125 --> 01:06:06,500 Carnegie encourages us to listen, 191 01:06:06,833 --> 01:06:07,958 to be patient, to be 192 01:06:07,958 --> 01:06:09,500 sincere, and to be encouraging, 193 01:06:09,958 --> 01:06:11,250 as it often pays off 194 01:06:11,250 --> 01:06:12,291 for us just to listen. 195 01:06:13,125 --> 01:06:14,458 Carnegie's principle number six 196 01:06:14,708 --> 01:06:16,791 was to let the other person do a great 197 01:06:16,791 --> 01:06:17,666 deal of the talking. 198 01:06:18,583 --> 01:06:19,916 So that brings us today 199 01:06:19,916 --> 01:06:21,666 and we're gonna begin and finish chapter 200 01:06:21,666 --> 01:06:23,041 seven of part three. 201 01:06:23,583 --> 01:06:24,500 And that chapter is 202 01:06:24,500 --> 01:06:26,541 entitled "How to Get Cooperation." 203 01:06:27,916 --> 01:06:29,291 To begin this chapter, Carnegie calls 204 01:06:29,291 --> 01:06:30,708 on some of the previous foundations 205 01:06:30,958 --> 01:06:32,375 he taught us earlier in the book, 206 01:06:32,833 --> 01:06:33,958 reminding us that, quote, 207 01:06:34,166 --> 01:06:35,125 "No one likes to feel 208 01:06:35,125 --> 01:06:36,708 that he or she is being sold 209 01:06:36,708 --> 01:06:38,750 on something or told to do a thing. 210 01:06:39,250 --> 01:06:42,000 We much prefer to feel that we are buying 211 01:06:42,083 --> 01:06:43,333 of our own accord or 212 01:06:43,333 --> 01:06:44,791 acting on our own ideas. 213 01:06:45,125 --> 01:06:47,166 We like to be consulted about our wishes, 214 01:06:47,166 --> 01:06:49,416 our wants, and our thoughts," end quote. 215 01:06:50,375 --> 01:06:50,958 Carnegie first 216 01:06:50,958 --> 01:06:52,750 illustrates this through a manager 217 01:06:52,958 --> 01:06:53,708 calling a meeting 218 01:06:53,708 --> 01:06:55,041 about lackluster results 219 01:06:55,041 --> 01:06:56,500 and enthusiasm with his team. 220 01:06:57,166 --> 01:06:58,500 And the manager begins the 221 01:06:58,500 --> 01:07:00,208 conversation asking his team 222 01:07:00,208 --> 01:07:02,083 what exactly they expect from him. 223 01:07:02,791 --> 01:07:04,583 After he wrote all the comments down, 224 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:06,916 then the manager asked his team 225 01:07:06,916 --> 01:07:07,833 what they thought he 226 01:07:07,833 --> 01:07:08,875 should expect from them. 227 01:07:09,708 --> 01:07:11,375 When the comments came rolling in, 228 01:07:11,500 --> 01:07:12,708 they said things like 229 01:07:12,708 --> 01:07:14,875 loyalty, honesty, initiative, 230 01:07:15,208 --> 01:07:16,375 optimism, teamwork, 231 01:07:16,583 --> 01:07:18,000 enthusiasm, et cetera. 232 01:07:18,916 --> 01:07:20,583 Then relaying the story, 233 01:07:20,583 --> 01:07:21,750 the manager said, quote, 234 01:07:21,875 --> 01:07:23,041 "The people had made a 235 01:07:23,041 --> 01:07:24,833 sort of moral bargain with me 236 01:07:24,833 --> 01:07:27,291 as long as I lived up to my part in it, 237 01:07:27,541 --> 01:07:28,750 then they were determined to 238 01:07:28,750 --> 01:07:30,291 live up to theirs," end quote. 239 01:07:30,916 --> 01:07:32,083 And the manager didn't 240 01:07:32,083 --> 01:07:33,166 have to stand up there 241 01:07:33,166 --> 01:07:34,208 and lecture his team 242 01:07:34,208 --> 01:07:35,375 about taking initiative 243 01:07:35,791 --> 01:07:36,916 or having enthusiasm. 244 01:07:37,500 --> 01:07:38,416 They came up with those 245 01:07:38,416 --> 01:07:39,791 ideas all on their own. 246 01:07:40,375 --> 01:07:41,750 And as such, those 247 01:07:41,750 --> 01:07:43,458 conclusions carried more weight 248 01:07:43,708 --> 01:07:45,291 because it was their conclusion, 249 01:07:45,666 --> 01:07:46,875 not something someone else 250 01:07:46,875 --> 01:07:49,000 handed to them or forced on them. 251 01:07:49,708 --> 01:07:50,125 In the next 252 01:07:50,125 --> 01:07:51,708 illustration Carnegie provides, 253 01:07:52,291 --> 01:07:53,833 an artist that was hoping to sell 254 01:07:53,833 --> 01:07:55,041 sketches to a studio 255 01:07:55,041 --> 01:07:56,208 had failed hundreds of 256 01:07:56,208 --> 01:07:57,666 times over many years 257 01:07:57,666 --> 01:07:59,041 to sell even just one. 258 01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:02,083 Finally, the artist changed his approach 259 01:08:02,625 --> 01:08:03,541 and he went to the studio 260 01:08:03,541 --> 01:08:05,083 buyer with incomplete sketches 261 01:08:05,250 --> 01:08:06,750 asking how they would finish them. 262 01:08:07,458 --> 01:08:08,083 When the artist 263 01:08:08,083 --> 01:08:09,416 actually finished the sketches 264 01:08:09,666 --> 01:08:10,583 with what the studio 265 01:08:10,583 --> 01:08:12,625 had suggested, guess what? 266 01:08:12,625 --> 01:08:14,000 The studio finally bought them. 267 01:08:14,416 --> 01:08:15,583 The artist said, quote, 268 01:08:15,875 --> 01:08:16,875 "This made him feel that 269 01:08:16,875 --> 01:08:18,416 he was creating the designs 270 01:08:18,666 --> 01:08:20,250 and he was, I didn't have to 271 01:08:20,250 --> 01:08:22,208 sell him, he bought," end quote. 272 01:08:23,208 --> 01:08:24,125 Carnegie then accounts a 273 01:08:24,125 --> 01:08:25,541 couple other stories of people 274 01:08:25,541 --> 01:08:27,166 that planted seeds of an 275 01:08:27,166 --> 01:08:28,875 idea within the other person 276 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:30,375 and then sat back and 277 01:08:30,375 --> 01:08:32,041 watched their idea grow 278 01:08:32,500 --> 01:08:33,625 all on its own into what 279 01:08:33,625 --> 01:08:35,000 the other person often felt 280 01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:36,000 was an idea they had 281 01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:37,208 come up with on their own. 282 01:08:38,166 --> 01:08:39,750 At times, this takes some 283 01:08:39,750 --> 01:08:41,500 time, a few conversations 284 01:08:42,208 --> 01:08:42,958 and that's okay. 285 01:08:43,333 --> 01:08:44,500 People like to chew on an 286 01:08:44,500 --> 01:08:45,750 idea for a while sometimes 287 01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:46,833 while it's growing in 288 01:08:46,833 --> 01:08:47,791 the back of our minds. 289 01:08:48,708 --> 01:08:50,250 Carnegie quotes Ralph Waldo Emerson 290 01:08:50,541 --> 01:08:51,125 from his essay 291 01:08:51,125 --> 01:08:53,000 "Self-Reliance" stating, quote, 292 01:08:53,416 --> 01:08:55,000 "In every work of genius, 293 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:57,375 we recognize our own rejected thoughts. 294 01:08:57,791 --> 01:08:59,250 They come back to us with a 295 01:08:59,250 --> 01:09:00,708 certain alienated majesty," 296 01:09:01,333 --> 01:09:01,708 end quote. 297 01:09:03,041 --> 01:09:04,416 My interpretation of this, 298 01:09:05,125 --> 01:09:07,083 often when we hear a good idea, 299 01:09:07,250 --> 01:09:08,750 somewhere in the back of our minds, 300 01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:11,125 we think that we had already had the 301 01:09:11,125 --> 01:09:12,541 inkling of that thought. 302 01:09:12,875 --> 01:09:14,833 Maybe just we didn't tie it together 303 01:09:14,833 --> 01:09:16,333 or we didn't finish it out, 304 01:09:16,583 --> 01:09:19,500 but the idea has a familiarity to it. 305 01:09:19,958 --> 01:09:21,125 The point is that we 306 01:09:21,125 --> 01:09:22,333 are looking for the seeds 307 01:09:22,333 --> 01:09:24,583 in our own mind that will provide the 308 01:09:24,583 --> 01:09:25,875 answer, the epiphany. 309 01:09:26,833 --> 01:09:28,041 Carnegie is suggesting we 310 01:09:28,041 --> 01:09:29,625 plant those seeds for others 311 01:09:30,083 --> 01:09:31,250 and let them discover and 312 01:09:31,250 --> 01:09:32,875 grow the idea on their own. 313 01:09:33,625 --> 01:09:35,083 Carnegie finished out the chapter 314 01:09:35,291 --> 01:09:36,541 telling a story about himself 315 01:09:36,541 --> 01:09:37,416 when he was deciding 316 01:09:37,416 --> 01:09:38,625 where to go on a vacation, 317 01:09:39,208 --> 01:09:40,041 saying, quote, 318 01:09:40,166 --> 01:09:41,041 "The others had been trying 319 01:09:41,041 --> 01:09:42,458 to sell me on their service, 320 01:09:42,666 --> 01:09:44,500 but one let me sell myself, 321 01:09:45,083 --> 01:09:46,500 and that organization won," 322 01:09:46,916 --> 01:09:47,333 end quote. 323 01:09:48,250 --> 01:09:50,125 Lao-cha, a Chinese sage 26 324 01:09:50,125 --> 01:09:51,958 centuries ago, said, quote, 325 01:09:52,166 --> 01:09:53,458 "The reason why rivers 326 01:09:53,458 --> 01:09:55,166 and seas receive the homage 327 01:09:55,166 --> 01:09:57,375 of a hundred mountain streams is that 328 01:09:57,375 --> 01:09:58,625 they keep below them. 329 01:09:59,416 --> 01:10:00,625 Thus, they are able to reign 330 01:10:00,625 --> 01:10:02,125 over all the mountain streams. 331 01:10:02,875 --> 01:10:05,583 So the sage wishing to be above men 332 01:10:06,041 --> 01:10:07,541 putteth himself below them. 333 01:10:07,875 --> 01:10:09,916 Wishing to be before them, he putteth 334 01:10:09,916 --> 01:10:11,291 himself behind them. 335 01:10:12,166 --> 01:10:13,958 Thus, though his place be above men, 336 01:10:14,375 --> 01:10:15,916 they do not feel his weight. 337 01:10:16,500 --> 01:10:18,208 Though his place be before them, 338 01:10:18,208 --> 01:10:19,250 they do not count it 339 01:10:19,250 --> 01:10:20,750 an injury," end quote. 340 01:10:21,208 --> 01:10:23,166 And again, Sean's interpretation here, 341 01:10:23,750 --> 01:10:25,916 a true leader gains respect from a 342 01:10:25,916 --> 01:10:27,083 position of humility. 343 01:10:27,833 --> 01:10:28,875 Okay, here it is. 344 01:10:29,208 --> 01:10:30,500 In a chapter entitled, 345 01:10:30,500 --> 01:10:31,625 "How to Get Cooperation," 346 01:10:32,250 --> 01:10:34,083 Carnegie's principle number seven is, 347 01:10:34,541 --> 01:10:36,041 "Let the other person feel 348 01:10:36,041 --> 01:10:38,291 that the idea is his or hers." 349 01:10:39,666 --> 01:10:40,541 Tomorrow, we'll begin 350 01:10:40,541 --> 01:10:41,875 chapter eight of part three 351 01:10:41,875 --> 01:10:43,041 with that chapter entitled, 352 01:10:43,708 --> 01:10:44,708 "A Formula That Will 353 01:10:44,708 --> 01:10:46,000 Work Wonders for You." 354 01:10:46,625 --> 01:10:47,416 Well, I hope your week 355 01:10:47,416 --> 01:10:48,208 has been going great. 356 01:10:48,708 --> 01:10:49,708 And if you're facing a big 357 01:10:49,708 --> 01:10:51,250 project, a personal goal, 358 01:10:51,250 --> 01:10:52,833 or just another day on the grind, 359 01:10:53,291 --> 01:10:54,500 know that you've got this. 360
