Story
Years ago, after suffering a humiliatingly large dumb tax, it dawned on me that I have a seemingly unlimited ability to hit unforced errors and sabotage my business and financial success. I suspect you do, too. It turns out that the key to getting rich (and staying that way) is to avoid doing stupid things. I don't need to do more smart things. I just need to make fewer dumb mistakes. The vast majority of our dumb tax is a direct result of emotional, overly optimistic, and poorly thought out decisions.

For the first time in history, the average age for an American woman having her first child, 26, is younger than the average age of her first marriage, 27. More children than ever are growing up in fatherless homes, despite the overwhelming evidence that in every measurable way this is bad for the child. The Center for Disease Control also recently reported a dramatic rise in sexually transmitted disease nationwide. In Rhode Island alone, since the onset of online dating, reported cases of Syphilis has risen 79%, and HIV has increased by 33%.

Pretty Good Ideas.
There are some interesting ideas and exercises, although I feel like it doesn't go deep enough, it certainly isn’t shallow.
Recommended for people who actually do exercises. Try bookmarking the sections for later reference, and copying them down.
Here's an example of an exercise that I copied onto a note in my phone:
Track these on a scale of 1 to 10. Do this for a few weeks and see how you progress, and what you have to work on.
• Sense of purpose.
• Presence of positive mentors.
• Sensory vision of the future.
• Self belief.
• Planning and organization
• Patience and perseverance
• Ability to see work as play.
An alternative to a mentor is role model, who you can aspire to and even compare your actions to their actions in the same domain.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
