The school or the student
Our little first grader has done incredibly well since we switched schools a few weeks back. This has me thinking. According to Paul Graham it doesn’t matter much where someone went to college, at least when it comes to predicting software startup success. This was a surprise for the Yale graduate. I tend to agree with him at the college level. But when kids are younger does the school matter more?Do they need a better environment when they’re just getting started with formal education?

Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity by David Allen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars Extremely useful ideas on how to actually get organized, stay that way, and keep up with all the things to do in every aspect of life. This book is about the nitty gritty details of running a tight ship. It certainly doesn't read like a novel, but the information is very valuable. Over the last year my life has become much more complex. Using the techniques from GTD I've been able to keep a much better handle on all of it. View all my reviews >>
