Inside Bill's Brain

This week's editorial note is a recommendation...watch the documentary series currently on Netflix called Inside Bill's Brain. It looks at the internal operating system of Bill Gates, and there is so much to love and learn in just the first episode alone. According to Bill's secretary, he is 100% on time, 100% of the time. Despite being one of the busiest and most successful businessmen in the world, he is never late. He carries a large beach bag full of a wide range of books with him at all times. He retreats to a cabin in the woods to pour over his reading list and ponder the future. When facing a complex problem that no one within that industry can solve, he looks for people from other sectors who think differently and approach the problem from a completely different angle. I could go on and on, but my suggestion is to get a cup of tea, sit with your journal, and look at how Bill operates. Don't be concerned with the outcomes, focus on Bill's process and then think "how can I apply that to my own operating system?" © GB
