Outliers and Philosophy
Lesson Outline
Today we continued Chapter 5 of Outliers. Gladwell's discussion was based around how by utilizing their present skills in the garment industry, and by working hard and exploiting the opportunities presented to them, European Jewish immigrants successfully conquered the garment market in Manhattan in the late 19th Century to mid 20th Century. Autonomy, complexity, and a connection between effort and reward are, most people agree, the three qualities that work has to have if it is to be satisfying. Additionally, when children see meaningful hard work in their parents, they learn this lesson and are usually successful themselves.
