This reminds me of this scene in Matrix: Neo: "I know kung fu".

A Monday morning question for you: Is the situation actually complicated or is it really quite straightforward, but you're making it complicated because it requires a lot of courage to make the straightforward decision?

We don't need to debate whether it's better to be a generalist or a specialist. The world needs both. Specialists excel at zooming in. They see the details to deepen our knowledge. Generalists excel at zooming out. They see around corners to broaden our view.

The value of reading, and of writing things down that we read, or hear, cannot be overstated.

Taking notes, however cursory, turns out to be the best way to remember and implement information later.
