How "The Checklist Manifesto" Can Boost Your Bank Account
Grab a pen and a piece of paper -- you now have all the tools you need to change your life!
Bestselling author of "The Checklist Manifesto, How to Get Things Right" and "Extra" Lifechanger, Atul Gawande says his lists actually saved lives.
"When we introduced checklists into operating rooms for a project that we started, we found we were reducing deaths by more than a third," Gawande told "Extra."
In order to boost your bank account Gawande suggests using a "Checklist Investment." Not a checklist that makes one feel they have to win every time, but creating a recipe for avoiding recurring failures. People tend to make the same mistakes over and over again.
