I recently completed the first term of a new course at UCT called “Attention Economics”, where I was working with a group of bright undergrad commerce students who are all interested in learning how to find their place in the world and make a success of their careers. This has been an invigorating and fulfilling process for me, and I think that much of the value for myself and the students has been the shared exploration of the potential within us.
Anyway, this video is for them. And I hope that you enjoy it too:

Fantastic clip Dave and well done on serving your community so well.
The 3 P’s to success? I feel a blog post coming on!
Thanks Dave. I loved this – am about to share it with my team. The word ‘crap’ will become part of our company’s lexicon from tomorrow – joining other great words like ‘the goblin’ (its a long story) and ‘how fascinating’.
hi dave.
Just wanna know what you thought about our blogs and essays?
thanks man

Hey Paul, it was interesting how diverse the approaches to the essay were. I was impressed with your writing and the debate you raised. We were very strict on the marking though, as is necessary for a new subject.
