He certainly understands accomplishment driving self-esteem, not the other way around. This is a man who had an affair with Ayn Rand after all.

    Maybe it does contain some pop-psychology, but I still think it's well worth reading. It certainly sheds light on why so many professionals under-price their knowledge.
