- Experts Use Ten Simple Concepts: #10, God Breaks the Rules
[Arts-and-Entertainment:Humor] Don’t get too proud of yourself just because you made it to the last concept. This whole series has been designed so that however you use this information you’re going to keep referring back (and paying me!) for more information, books, newsletters, tapes, DVD’s, and ultimately to beg me to be listed as beneficiary on your life insurance policy. Why? Because this is where the rubber meets the road, and believe me, you’re going to need help on this one…

So quit reading now, it’s fine with me. I'll catch you on the flip-flop.
- Experts Use Ten Simple Concepts: #7; Have Something Proprietary
[Arts-and-Entertainment:Humor] Really, I'm sorry to disturb you, but if you ever expect to attain expertise you’re really going to have to stretch your vocabulary. I know that seems like a burden, but, Hey! if I can take the time to explain myself to you so you'll understand these concepts, you can certainly invest in a dictionary. Scared you, didn't I? Don't worry, I'll define the word "proprietary", that's what you’re paying me for. You are paying me, aren’t you?
