Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a society where all things smart and intelligent are good, and anything that is dumb or stupid is bad. But wait a minute. You probably know at least one brilliant person who is a miserable failure. Worse, you probably know at least one blithering idiot who has risen quickly and easily to the heights of wealth and power, and all too often, they are your boss or your biggest client. What is wrong with this picture? Strange though it may seem, intelligence is not all that it is cracked up to be. And stupidity, while much maligned, is often a highly effective method of achieving success. If you constantly find yourself in situations where you are smarter than everyone else, and yet you are doing all the work while the C students are sitting around making all the money and having all the fun, this book is for you. In this groundbreaking new book, Justin Locke (author of "Real Men Don't Rehearse" and the #1 expert in the world on stupidity) shows you how to get in touch with your inner idiot and access the infinite power of ignorance and non-thought to address a wide range of problems and challenges, including management, leadership, communications, relationships, creativity, and more!
