Why China has the Ultimate Edge

http://only1list.com/

We're having the wrong conversation about why and whether China is superior.

Watch this video to understand what's wrong.

Then, engage in the following discussion with your friends, colleagues and associates:

1. Why do most authors and speakers teach us recipes (in the form of rules and laws and techniques)?

2. Many of Steve Jobs' words have been repeated frequently across books and blogs. But what he said about the "5 rules of innovation" (starting at 01:30 in the video) remains surprisingly obscure. Why do you think that is?

3. Albert Einstein said: "Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking." Have we fallen into such lazy thinking that we seek recipes for everything from innovation to leadership and relationships and parenting?

4. How much do you think we could improve our productivity (individually or collectively) if we were to reduce our reliance on recipes? Do you think we could improve it enough to stay ahead of China?

5. What do you think it would take to spark a revolution to reduce our reliance on recipes?
