Join 📚 Fabien's Highlights
A batch of the best highlights from what Fabien's read, .
My description of what makes people perform relies heavily on Abraham Maslow’s theory of motivation, simply because my own observations of working life confirm Maslow’s concepts. For Maslow, motivation is closely tied to the idea of needs, which cause people to have drives, which in turn result in motivation. A need once satisfied stops being a need and therefore stops being a source of motivation. Simply put, if we are to create and maintain a high degree of motivation, we must keep some needs unsatisfied at all times.

1. Il vaut mieux risquer l’audace plutôt que la banalité. 2. Un mauvais plan vaut mieux que pas de plan du tout. 3. Les marchés concurrentiels sont destructeurs de profits. 4. Les ventes comptent tout autant que le produit.
BONHOEFFER’S THEORY OF STUPIDITY
Evil can be guarded against. Stupidity cannot. And the world’s few evil people have little power without the help of the world’s many stupid people. As a result, stupidity is a far greater threat than evil.
