92Y Video: MindCapsules™ - One Life, One Lesson, One Minute with Anthony DeCurtis


Anthony DeCurtis sits in front of the camera for the 92Y MindCapsules™ video series, and offers one life lesson learned that is very helpful: “Don’t take it personally.”

I think that when I was younger certainly, that was something that tripped me up a lot. I mean, I tended to kind of respond in a very personal way to situations that was either, innapropriate, or beside the point. You know, I think the more you can distant yourself, and have a little bit of perspective...”

Wise, wise words from a wise, wise man. This brings back so many cringe-inducing memories when we did not practice this advice. View previous MindCapsules™ with Malcolm Gladwell and Lewis Black.
