They buy something for the eighth grade class with the proceeds. The mothers group at his school have a bake sale every year. The story of Bill Gates starts when he was an eighth grade student. It also requires a tremendous amount of luck, good fortune or whatever you call it. What Gladwell explains is that to achieve the tipping point and become an outlier requires 10,000 hours spent doing one thing.
It’s that one thing that opens the doors for us. To become an Outlier we all need a tipping point. What made them so special? Based on what I read, everyone today has a chance of being an Outlier in their Niche. Gladwell uses case studies of a few Outliers like Bill Gates and The Beatles to make his point. Both are excellent books about what it takes to succeed in your niche.Īn Outlier is someone who is way ahead of anyone else. If you are planning on reading Outliers, read The Tipping Point first. Outliers is a natural sequel to The Tipping Point. The Tipping Point was written in 2,000 and is more applicable today than when it was written. I read The Tipping Point and Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell back to back.
