Great summary. The herd mentality part is actually quite interesting. I just wish they would stop kicking so many field goals.

Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap... and Others Don't over 2 years ago

I enjoyed mostly the fact that it talks more about do what you are passionate about, not just what pays the most. I think a lot of people are stuck in crappy jobs because it pays well. As opposed to doing something that makes them happy.

The steve jobs point is interesting, as you know steve jobs was a founder. And apple was doing really well. Then he left apple and all of the sudden microsoft and pc’s impacted the market heavily. Now that steve jobs is back, mac is the new computer to buy. Almost contrary to the book about legacies.
