Some sees something akin to a movie projector in their mind; some describes it as being ”dream-like“; some imagines themself as the character and sees the world through their eyes. And some can’t ”see” anything at all—these are people with Aphantasia.

My Book Notes

Whilst Lord Sugar undoubtedly deserves his huge success through hard work and perseverance, he's far from modest within the book - rarely crediting others for their help, and often making out other (equally highly successful) individuals to be dummies who are silly for not following his advice. It can be a little grating, and I found myself researching some of the stories Lord Sugar recounts on-line, to find out the alternative point of view. The phrase encourages straightforwardness and transparency, values that are highly appreciated in today's world.

Then there’s the problem of knowing what’s right. “So much of reality wasn’t what it seemed at first glance.” Despite everything, everywhere being recorded on video and photos, secrets and misunderstandings create dangerous traps, which good, brave people can help untangle, in fiction and maybe also in life. I still retain my bike-building skills, to the surprise of some of my friends, my wife and even my children. One of them would ask, ‘Who fixed that puncture?’ I give What You See 4 Stars out of 5 and a Thumbs Up! If you are ready to put up with the fast-paced challenge of modern multitasking along with the struggles that dealing with the secrets that families keep, then this book will keep you up all night. Threepence a bundle was the price he said he’d pay, and within two days I’d converted all the stuff and taken it to his yard. The other kids were on to this like a shot, but they didn’t have my sales skills. I was fascinated by his spiel. ‘There you are, two big bath towels, three hand towels, four flannels, five pillow cases, three sets of sheets. I’ll throw in two pillows and, wait for it, a wonderful full-size blanket. Now, the lady over there – put your hand down, love – I don’t want twenty-five pounds, forget twenty pounds, forget fifteen, don’t even think about ten. The lady over there – put your money away, dear. Now, I want five – hands up – five pounds the lot.’Since then I have read most of what he has written and have learned from this. He has all the same traits as my father who was also an entrepreneur. He admits his mistakes but confirms in every chapter my view that entrepreneurs can be made. He was made by his environment which gave him tremendous willpower, controlled risk taking, a great grasp of money matters, and brilliant deal making skill. Typically, a member of each class would take the visitors through his or her class’s work. I was chosen by my teacher to talk to the parents of the kids from our class. It came naturally to me, explaining in detail the work on show. Knowing me, I imagine I was offering too much detail and maybe repeating myself, especially if I thought the audience wasn’t grasping what I was saying. I recall explaining to one parent why a conker tree is called a horse chestnut tree: if you break a leaf off a branch, at the base of its stem you’ll see a series of dots in the shape of a horseshoe. All in all, a WYSIWYG editor gives marketers a more enjoyable user interface to work independently from developers. After all, web visitors don't want to stare at a wall of not-so-visually appealing text. They want to see nicely formatted paragraphs, images, videos, and other graphics - all of which enhance user experience. He turned to the other staff and said, ‘Did you hear that? This boy has landed me with a fifteen-pound printing machine and now wants ten shillings to get rid of it for me!’ He was seriously angry.
