Note: Viktor Frankl did NOT say this, it is the humanistic psychologist Rollo May that proposed this sentiment in "The Courage to Create". Please give Rollo May credit. He is so underrated, as it is. https://t.co/nIigIyzNQO

ICYMI, I chatted with my former mentor Robert Sternberg. His book "Successful Intelligence" inspired me in college to go into this field in the first place. What a delight to interview him for my podcast about intelligence, especially real-world "adaptive intelligence". https://t.co/xoJSh91TQ1
