If this article had any less substance it would be a David Brooks piece.

Flagged. Wondering, how many people, who voted on this, have actually read it and found it to be valuable.

Make sure they're happy, respected and enjoy what they're doing. Seems like common sense..?

How many more articles will we see that are just common sense, regurgitated into list form? More importantly how do said articles reach front page?

It reads like pieces from David Rock's <Your Brain at Work>.
