Simon Sinek: Why Leaders Eat Last




Not normally a fan of Simon Sinek because he reminds me of a combination of J.J. Abrahms and Nate Silver. He also brings out an irrational desire to want to punch him in the face. That said Sinek has some great quotes from this talk about focus and leadership.


"If you look at the human animal, the human animal is like a machine. There are systems inside our bodies that are trying to get us to do things that are in the interest of the survival of the human animal."
"The human body works exactly the same way. Inside our bodies are chemicals that are trying to get us to do things that are in the best interest of us."
"There is one thing the human body is made for is endurance."
"For all you Gen Y's who like to think that you're better at multitasking because you grew up with the technology . . . you're not better at multitasking you are better at getting distracted."
