PROBLEM: Billionaire LinkedIn founder and Greylock investor  Reid Hoffman  believes that successful people need to hone the skill of "unlearning."
In his journey to becoming one of Silicon Valley's most influential entrepreneurs and investors   LinkedIn cofounder and Greylock partner Reid Hoffman  has seen the full scale of success  failure  and everything in between.
 He 's both observed and mentored founders like Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg from  their  professional infancy into the heads of world-changing companies.  He 's personally dabbled in managing  investing  teaching  and even political organizing.
 His  career has taught  him  there's a danger all successful people face   he  explained on a recent episode of  his  podcast "Masters of Scale."
"People tend to take pleasure in their mastery of a given field "  he  said. "They go  'I've learned this  and now this is what will differentiate me from other people for all time.'"
 He  continued: "One of the things that I tell people is that success imprints more strongly than failure. And it does so because as you've succeeded  it's like  I've learned this tool. And so  this tool must be right. And so  I just keep applying it  and even as the train comes off the tracks  because part of what happens is  you know  markets change  competitors change  industries change. You change."

SOLUTION: LinkedIn's Reid Hoffman says successful people need to 'unlearn'

PROBLEM: When ice skater  Adam Rippon  was interviewed after  his  mesmerizing Olympics skate   his  winning warm charm was on full beam.
âItâs like pretty awesome â  he  said to the audience watching at home. âI highly recommend it. If you ever have the option  come to the Olympics. Itâs like a fun time. Today was so special  so much fun.â
There is something delicious about watching Rippon generallyâbecause  he âs having the best fun while also dead-serious in  his  medal-winning ambition; and  his  skating is a joyâand particularly when it comes to briskly dismissing Vice President Mike Pence.
Indeed   Rippon  told the Daily Mail  he  would boycott any Team USA celebration held by President Trump at the White House  indicating  he  would rather hold an LGBTQ-oriented event of  his  own.
Where Pence possesses a lumbering bigotry   Rippon  has intelligence  eloquence  wit  and beautiful ice-skating skills. It is  Rippon  now hailed as Americaâs sweetheart  while in South Korea Pence looked like a sad businessman not really enjoying the travel freebie heâd accepted.
 Rippon  has not called on Pence to do anything.  He  hasnât asked for anything from Pence at all. But the Winter Olympicsâ first out-gay U.S. competitor has called Pence out  first for supporting conversion therapy  then for  his  general prejudice and acts of legislative hostility toward the LGBTQ community.
Pence has denied the conversion-therapy charge  but  Rippon  is merely echoing LGBT groupsâ highlighting of the now-infamous quote from Penceâs congressional campaign website in 2000  in which  referring to organizations that should not receive federal support under the Ryan White Care Act  included those âthat celebrate and encourage the types of behaviors that facilitate the spreading of the HIV virus.â
The Rippon and Pence tangle began when  Rippon   pre-Olympics  told USA Today of the choice of Pence to lead the U.S. Olympic delegation: âYou mean Mike Pence  the same Mike Pence that funded gay conversion therapy? Iâm not buying it.â
As for the idea of meeting Pence   Rippon  added: âIf it were before my event  I would absolutely not go out of my way to meet somebody who I felt has gone out of their way to not only show that they arenât a friend of a gay person  but that they think that theyâre sick. I wouldnât go out of my way to meet somebody like that.â
Penceâs office denies he reached out to meet with  Rippon  after the interview was published; other sources say he did.
 Rippon  is too wise to be used as a gay scapegoat and make-nice photo opportunity.  He  is also  as viewers of the Olympics are quickly discovering  utterly  himself . It is a joy to watch  and a liberating joy at that.
Born in 1989   he  told one interviewer  his  first memory was watching the 1992 Winter Olympics. When those ice skaters fell   he  fell to the ground in toddler kinship.
 Rippon  is so alive  he  makes all of us watching  him  feel alive.  He âs that rare thing in pop culture: a regular gay guy  happy with  himself   handsome  stylish  politically astute  and a charming speaker.
 He âs not the polarities of gay pop culture traffics in:  He  is neither the âstraight-actingâ gay guy that TV can serve up  and  he âs not the flaming queen that TV can also serve upâ he  glides somewhere in the middle  like many gay people do  and itâs wonderful to watch America be charmed by  his  authenticity.
For example: what would  he  tell the Olympic judges if  he  couldâthat  he  wants to throw up and if  he  had a quick drink and Xanax heâd be fine.
Or revealing how  his  mom always taught  him  to stand up for what  he  believed in  giving  his  skating a greater purpose.

SOLUTION: Thanks Mike Pence. You Helped Make Adam Rippon an LGBTQ Olympics Hero

PROBLEM: House Freedom Caucus chairman  Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC)  joined Breitbart News Sunday live from Alabama to discuss  his  support of  former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore for U.S. Senate .
Breitbart London editor Raheem Kassam and Washington Political editor Matt Boyle joined Congressman Meadows for an extended chat on  Moore ’s Tuesday special primary election showdown with the Chamber of Commerce-endorsed appointed Sen. Luther Strange.
“I know  Judge Roy Moore  to be not only be a man of character in spite of the tens of millions of dollars that are flowing into Alabama to suggest otherwise ” Meadows said  laying out the case for his chosen candidate.
Moore  on the other hand  is  in Meadows opinion  the kind of candidate who will not bend to “the Swamp.” He told Kassam and Boyle  “A Judge Moore win really would make sure that the Trump agenda gets implemented ” adding  “There’s all kinds of members of Congress and senators who will run  and they really run so incredibly strong like they have a backbone of steel  but they really have a backbone of a banana. You know  when it’s peeled back  it gets real mushy when they get to Washington  DC. So we need to give them some steel.  Judge Roy Moore  has a backbone of steel. I’m glad to not only endorse  him  and support  him   but I look forward to serving with  him  in the coming days.”
Meadows also laid out  his  case against Luther Strange  whom President Trump has chosen to endorse.  He  focused  for example  on Strange’s back-and-forth record on eliminating the filibuster for legislation in the Senate  telling Boyle  “Luther Strange has done the infamous flip-flop. I can tell you I was never so mad to see that  he  signed onto a letter that says we ought to keep the 60 vote filibuster rule in place  that says you gotta have 60 votes in order to move anything in the Senate. That one thing has thwarted the Trump agenda over and over and over again in this first nine months. And yet   he  signed onto a letter that said we need to keep it. Well  it was only when  he  got in a real tough race in this special election did  he  say  just a few weeks ago  ‘Oh  no. I’m for doing away with the filibuster.’ The American people are smarter than that. I know the people in Alabama are smarter than that. They see it for what it is: a political stunt that  he  pulled at the last minute in hopes of trying to convince people that  he  is one of them.”
Meadows closed  his  appearance by offering  his  prediction.  “Roy Moore  is a man of faith. The power of prayer for so many is going up on  his  behalf right now. I think Tuesday night will be a great victory  due in no small part to the wonderful efforts of all the listeners ”  he  said before signing off.
