Bruce Lee: Productivity Dragon
grant balfour | May 9 2008
The aptly named "Positivity Blog" recently had a rather compelling overview of Bruce Lee, Productivity Guru.
Like our own dear Merlin, Mr. Lee was from the Bay Area and took a lifelong interest in the fundamental rules underlying systems; unlike Mr. Mann, Bruce Lee could break Chuck Norris in half but never once listened to Zen Arcade. What's more impressive, though, is how much of the Little Dragon's martial arts philosophy can be applied to pretty much everything. I'm especially fond of #4 on Positivity's list (“Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.”), but probably need to work most on #2: Quote:
I'm not going to argue with that.

 My favorite Lee quoteSubmitted by Andre Kibbe on May 14, 2008 - 7:30am.
This is the one I posted a couple of days ago in the context of distinguishing between methodology and technology: I hope martial artists are more interested in the root of martial arts and not the different decorative branches, flowers or leaves. It is futile to argue as to which single leaf, which design of branches or which attractive flower you like; when you understand the root, you understand all its blossoming. » POSTED IN:
