essentially the right hand side of the constraint. Given wealth and prices, the first story condition will define a Marshall and demand and direct utility. And that's going to be my objective function if I'm the government. Okay.
evidence-based facts. Um, and so the effort here is to kind of try to marshall factual evidence with the typical kind of proof um, as as you know, as evidence that God exists.
I've been in the community for 20 years. Marsha Stephanie and I met doing a play at the Signature-- at the old Signature, with Will Jackson Harper and everyone else. And to me, I know that there is some sort of, I don't know, like old adage that, somehow or another,
Not that young-- Very young. Marsha P. Johnson found her and saved her life.
And yet she was also very well accepted in leading some of the Boston cycling tours during that time. Marshall Taylor also raced frequently in Boston. He was a great champion, black cyclist of the 1890s and 1900s, both nationally and internationally.
So there are real consequences to these and breathing all the stuff. Marsha Music is another one who is also a writer in the city that is absolutely brilliant, also a generational Detroiter.
Stanford University in the 1960s and 1970s in the during the marshmallow experiment they would put one marshmallow down in front of a child and they would say you can eat this marshmallow now or I'm going to leave the room and when I come back if the marshmallow is still here I'll give you two
the room and when I come back if the marshmallow is still here I'll give you two marshmallows now obviously the child that was able to wait is better at delayed gratification it also correlated with higher test scores and better
not de delay gratification and wait for the person to come back to get the two marshmallows um and this is a really important point when it comes to investing so human beings have a really different difficult time controlling themselves what this little boy is actually responding to is a hormone
And I started writing. Marshall Mathers is Eminem, of course.
So afterwards, I'd want to find out where he went. Marshall's one of the premier coaches in the world.
First, let me introduce you to Marsha Aday, his wife, Gete Tebo, and six of their seven children. Marsha Aday is the tribal leader of the Messa tribe and lives on the flanks of Mount Yero Wallo deep in the Amaro Mountains of Ethiopia. I wasn't looking for Marsha Aday exactly.
And without long, I knew that I was looking for Marsha Aday. Marsha Aday lives in a home without a door. That signifies his status as the head of the tribe.
And when I finally arrived, we sat down and started talking about coffee. Marsha Aday is a coffee farmer in one of the most rural parts of Ethiopia, which means he makes less than $1 a day. However, he drinks a fortune every day in coffee.
That's part of the every day culture there. Marsha Aday told me this story while holding a bright red coffee cherry in his hand and handing it to me. And I bit into it.
What would that mean for these people here? Marsha Aday lives a half a drive away from any town, assuming you can actually drive on the roads. The roads are more often used as flat spots for drying coffee than they are for any sort of transportation.
As I said, the coffee topples over itself as it stretches up the flanks of Mount Yero Wallo. Marsha Aday and I were speaking for about a half an hour at this point. And he was so excited.
well David you and I were both kind of on the hook for Gmail we worked as I Marshall come back and do another bit from unit testing so Google today you've spent a lot of
If you haven't eaten the marshmallow, I'll give you two marshmallows." And he shows me videos of one of the little girls banging her head on the table trying not to eat the marshmallow. One day, Michelle was using an Oreo cookie. The little kid picks up the Oreo, carefully opens the middle, carefully puts it back on the table. And that kid is now a US Senator. But the significance of the test is that 20 years later, the kids who could wait seven, eight, ten minutes have much higher college completion rates and 30 years later, much
And this new one is what flavor is that, Peter? Marshmallows. Yeah. Okay. Thank you. Yeah, we're going to do the title track of the album.
There's 5,000 people in the to field and this was a very typical letter email that people at Marsh would send out saying, "Hey, does anybody know anybody at this company?" It was called an all hands, it even had a name it was called an all hands email and that was a huge challenge because they would get all these and of course what happened? Somebody hits reply to all, to all 5,000 says, "No, sorry, I don't." And then of course somebody
So I'll give you an example about Marsha Stephanie. Like Marsha Stephanie, I begged her to come in for one day. She does one day.
And so I'm going to jump to our next question, and I'm just going to ask you to-- let's think about if we had a magical power to transport back into time. Thurgood Marshall, all of these people who could have chose to do otherwise.
The marshmallow brain is the part of our brain which focuses on immediate rewards and instant gratification.
General Marshall was a really amazing leader.
Garry Marshall, from actually the moment that the film came out, saw this as a musical for Broadway.
Garry Marshall's spirit and vision, it infuses every moment.
The Marshall Plan was the money that was-- again, it was the US Treasury Secretary who donated some dollars equivalent of $140 billion in 2017 money
He marshals the troops.
So marshmallows, brown sugar.
The Marshall Islands or something.
His coffee is accounted for in legend in Ethiopia in the 10th century BC. But Marsha Aday's ancestors didn't start drinking it until 3,000 years later in the 20th century. And the story is told that they were convinced that these bright red coffee cherries, if you would eat one of those,
They came on camels from the low lands of Kerdea on camels to the highlands of the Amaro and started trading for coffee. And Marsha Aday's ancestors were like, hmm. What's going on here?
Penny Marshall, and all the Paramount TV show people, and others.
Madonna thing which was so Marshall was doing Marshall Marshall did a great job of this every week in which he would announce celebrity who was going to come and present the unit-tests Awards then at the last minute they always called to cancel so one week he announced that
Probably all of you know this. It's called the Marshmallow Experiment. But just quickly for those who don't, Mischel took a bunch of four-year olds, put them in a room, put a marshmallow on the table in front of them and said, "I'm gonna leave the room, come back in ten minutes. If you haven't eaten the marshmallow, I'll give you two marshmallows." And he shows me videos of one of the little girls banging her head on the table trying not to eat the
Some kids don't grow up in those homes. And the kids, who could wait, didn't do it by staring at the marshmallow and saying, "I will exercise iron willpower. I will not eat that marshmallow." They did it by distracting themselves, by singing, by doing something else, pretending the marshmallow was a cloud. They had strategies. And so, the lesson is if you wanna change your mind, you change your behavior first. As the folks at Alcoholics Anonymous put it, "Fake it till you make it."
Brenda Marshall: Thank you so much for being here. And thank you so much for inviting me.
Brenda Marshall: That it is so much a part of our psyche and they know there are lots of sociologists, psychologists who sort of argue against this notion of a regional psyche.

that's marshland that doesn't exist.
It was just stunning. And exactly as Marsha said there, there are areas and moments in the show that you-- you didn't forget, but, like, oh, this was a small piece, and wait, this came back, and oh-- you can't not pay attention at any point.
