Have a look at the 19 minute version if you get a chance. I've been watching this on and off for 3 years or more and his perspective about life is spot on. For anyone losing their motivation during the coronavirus lock down there are certainly some principles to follow.
If you also get a chance have a look at his long list of achievements. His concerns about overseeing the operation of getting Osama bin Laden is very informative.Western Bulldogs Football Club "Where it's cool to drool"Comment

His speech has been used by a number of others as a motivational starting point but it all originated from his old college where he was asked to present, The school's moto is "What starts here changes the world" and his speech is about his experiences and what he believes are the skills and attitude required to change the world
The 19 min speech covers that journey, there are various interviews that can be found that focus more about his career and his impressive list of achievements
He has written books and done a number of interviews and as I have previously mentioned I have been following him for more than 3 years
but it's not for everyone
I link it to some lessons to learn during this lockdown phase to help keep you focused but many might not see it like that.Western Bulldogs Football Club "Where it's cool to drool"Comment

Re: Coronavirus Info & Helpful Direction
I shall do. There are some very strange conspiracy theories going around ATM about where Bin Laden was on September 11 2001. The article that I read said that he was at a US army medical facility getting dialysis. I can't see that happening.

Here's a few words from someone who knows far more than any of you about the implications of downloading the COVDSafe app.
And she is not downloading it.
Two million Australians will have the coronavirus tracing app on their phones tonight but a top former digital agency public servant won't download it because of the government's track record with people's data.
Professor Lesley Seebeck, the former Digital Transformation Agency chief investment and advisory officer who is now the head of the Australian National University Cyber Institute, said the government had a history of grabbing as much data as it could under technology and security laws.
"I am concerned because once these things are taken you don't get them back," Professor Seebeck said. "The government does not have a record of rolling any of these things back."

Re: Coronavirus Info & Helpful Direction
General rule of thumb to follow is that if something is offered free to you on a digital platform you then you're the product.
The government is ours, not theirs'. We own the government, but with corporates it is different. The battlefield around securing votes in modern times is essentially waged on which party or organisation can secure the most data about its constituents. There isn't a clear line of sight to how this data could possibly be used potentially to the detriment of the population, but the best remedy to that is to not share the data in the first place.
With corporates the drive is profit and that's a mild but important distinction from control and manipulation that is possible from handing over too much information to government. There's a clear transaction for services rendered by handing over data corporates.
Comparisons between our situation and those who live under more totalitarian rule aren't necessarily relevant, but why would you set the wheels in motion to possibly get there if you didn't have to?TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.Comment
