Summary of whitney johnson's smart growth

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In 2002, Mike Rowe hosted his life-changing S Curve in a sudden, raging flood of human waste in a sewer beneath San Francisco. He grew up idolizing his grandfather, but his grandfather told him he was enamored with the idea of being a jobber rather than a tradesman. #2 Until he found his sweet spot at age 42, Mike Rowe made a career out of exploration. He then made exploration the model for his hit reality TV series Dirty Jobs. #3 The Explorer phase is when you consider your destination, even if it seems like the destination chose you. It's when you do your homework before committing to a course of action, lest you find yourself at the top of an S Curve you don't care about. #4 We are also paralyzed by fear. We are constantly afraid of the unknown, and our brain generates stress and hyper-alertness to protect us from threats. We over-emphasize the negative to protect ourselves.
