Unfettered Thoughts

Won’t always be the most interesting of reads, but may be some good nuggets scattered throughout. This is more of mental practice for myself to see how I change over the years. When I take the time to journal regularly, I usually find a sharper mind and memory as the reward.

-From the podcast with Lex, I was intrigued when you said you had created something beyond your full grasp of understanding, or something to that effect. You also mentioned the long journey by yourself and the difficulty when you emerged to share something you are confident will leap humanity forward in our understanding of the world around us. 

-My content algorithms over the last few years have been spiraling down the rabbit hole of the IDW, Game B, and other general sensemaking podcasts. I don’t know yet if these influences helped or hurt my own creation.

-Before Bret and Heather put clarity on our fucked up education system and you highlight problems across a number of institutions. I could sense something wrong. I put my decade into retail, sales, and middle management. The education system failed to do anything more than teach me how to be a good worker for someone else. No inspiration to question why we do so much for short term growth and almost no thoughts on long term consequences.
