High flying, outlying and the meaning of success
Meike Nittel
On Febuary, 2nd I am on the way visiting a friend in Leeds, GB. Starting the trip we have great weather and an amazing view onto Berlin. Being high flying.
Years ago I was deeply impressed by Malcom Gladwell's book, Outliers. The Story of Success. The German title of the book is "Überflieger", which has a slightly different nuance in meaning than "Outliers", which translates to "Ausreißer (bei statistischer Betrachtung)".
Not diving any deeper into linguistic or philosophical thoughts I just like to share this one: The meaning of success is being in transition - I stay curious...
