FF to 2:19 to skip the rather dry and boring intro.
It's a shame that so few people watch videos like these. Less than 3,00 combined views is realitivly nothing in the world of youtube. Instead, people in and out of advertising choose to watch mindless virals day in and day out. And the wisdom in videos like these gets left behind*.
Maybe it's strange but I really enjoy watching videos like this. My mind always seems to wake up after watching an informative or exciting talk. While I listen I can't quite help make connections that I wouldn't make otherwise.
It's not as though Sir Hegarty and Sir Robinson are saying anything groundbreaking. But it's the reminder of these things that makes the videos powerful. It helps re-frame, at least for me, what I am doing and what I am doing it for.
Half of success comes from knowing more than other people. Half comes from how you apply that knowledge. And the last half is determined by ability and drive. (I've never been very good with numbers.
*Of course I have watched my fair share of viral videos but I also try to make time for videos that have a bit more depth.
