The Selfish-Selfless Spectrum
- Patrick Bet-David presents a selfish-selfless spectrum and identifies a 70-30 selfish-selfless split as optimal for leaders who build others.
- He shows extremes (100% selfish or 100% selfless) are harmful and younger people trend more selfish while aging increases selflessness.
Choose Whose Bus To Board

- Protect your environment because one bad person can destroy a team or company.
Clarify Your Core Philosophies
