Key Insights:
- Outrage is not a virtue—and it’s corrosive to democracy.
- Perspective will keep us humble and dampen our entitlement.
- What you want to do is a far less important question than who you want to be.
- Entertain Plan Bs too often and you’ll stop persevering long enough to carry out Plan As.
- The right kind of shame has its place.
