"Witty Unpredictable Talent And Natural Game"

Wu-Tang Clan
What else can be said about a group of  MC's that came together to establish one of the best rap groups to ever be formed. As I was working out today, I heard "Triumph" by Wu Tang and thought how they could get all of those personalities to come together and put out some of the  greatest albums of all-time.

"No weapon in hip-hop history can rival the chaotic cohesion of the Wu-Tang Clan. The Clan had so many characters, each with his own eccentricities. They were fearless in their approach. There's a good reason no group has been able to successfully recreate their sound. The crew spawned countless loosely associated acts. Their classic albums spawned classic albums." Henry Adaso

Autonomy, Mastery and Purpose

Drive: The surprising truth about what motivates us
by: Dan Pink

A great thought from this lecture:

"Turns out there are three factors that the science shows lead to the better performance, not to mention personal satisfaction: autonomy, mastery and purpose."
