I like how he says that “nobody’s talking about this” when in fact the book has sold 2 million copies, there is a video series, workshops and many study guides for the book which has been around for 10 years. The Boundaries book has spawned an entire subset of business books dedicated to “saying no” but he claims nobody’s talking about it…
Good grief.
If we subtracted every post or subject that’s been said before, we’d be left with two threads…
- “What’s Your Favorite Color?”
- “Guess What Number I’m Thinking.”
Do you know how many times I have seen someone licking their bawlz,
about some ‘brilliant idea’ that I, MYSELF, have mentioned 5, 10 years ago?!?
- and that’s coming from ME… the guy who talks about nothing worthwhile.
Shit, give me half a day, I bet I’ll find 20 ideas I’ve thrown out in random conversation,
that people use as their “go to” competitive advantage.
And in the same amount of time, I could probably find the same amount of things I’ve discovered from someone else.
Shit. How many people here, simply plagiarize from books they read.
And we sit here and act as if they are so brilliant.
I ain’t gonna start naming names, but…
Fact is, not much is original, these days.
This no reflection on you, @Steve
Its just kind of random.
We really do beat up on people sometimes, when they are simply… trying to help.
- Intentions matter to me. Thats all.
Ain’t THAT the truth. I read a book on the same subject called Boundary Power about ten years ago.
I agree and that dude makes no claims that this is his theory. He is saying that most people on the forums don’t talk about it because the might get shit from the other members.
