Kelly’s Rule of Inquiry

If you ask the top people for their opinions first, you won’t get effective advice from the people below them.

A group of people can be asked to make a decision and will march off in a direction they never would have taken by themselves.

When doctors are preparing to perform brain surgery on your wife, pull the top surgeons and physicians into a breakroom with residents and other medical staff and ask the people on the lowest rungs of the profession for their opinions on the surgery first.

“I learned you do not want to ask the space shuttle commander, the flight director, the chief engineer or program manager his opinion first. If you do, you don’t get effective advice from the people below them.”
At Los Alamos, visitors Niels Bohr and brother Harald obeyed Kelly’s Rule of Inquiry by running their ideas on the current work by Richard Feynman before asking anyone higher up.

Rule of 72

If you don’t practice something hard in 72 hours (3 days), you will forget it
It’s Sunday. I haven’t practiced the Rubiks Cube since Wednesday. I sit down and think: How the hell do I do this thing? Then I realize I haven’t practiced in 72 hours. I think ‘Oh... Rule of 72.’

Ja Rule

A guy that most people would think of as bad publicity or a way to lose money if seen with him these days. A guy most artists that made songs with him in the late 90's early 2000's would no longer sit with at the cool "grown" kids status table.
If Ja Rule was at a bar with Jay Z and DMX and 50 cent walked in, not only would he have to give his seat up to 50 cent, but Jay Z and DMX would help 50 cent drag their "friend" Ja Rule out of the bar.
