The king and his wife passed away this afternoon 💔 🕊️

You can spend a year constantly scrolling through social media feeds; reading things that trigger you, keep you entertained etc OR You spend same year reading (books, newsletters, podcasts, courses etc), questioning ideas, researching and sitting with the ideas that confuse you at first, forming your opinion. In the first phase of the latter, you might not have instant knowledge ready when asked but after like 2-3 years, the compounding starts. You see patterns others miss. You spot weak arguments immediately. You make decisions from understanding. By year 5, you would have spent years building your thinking instead of letting only algorithms do it for you. If you’re a young person, the leverage you currently have is time because life gets soooo busy as you get older and take on more responsibilities. A lot of people get to their first/second job and stop reading deeply. We rely on summaries of summaries. We outsource our thinking to AI because “ Omg, I’m so busy, I don’t have time to finish a book”… please dkm. The investment in quality information is in building yourself. Your ability to think. Your ability to see what others don’t and can’t. The years will go by either way, it’s what you do with them that you’ll see.🦋✨
