NGM Thoughts 20: Knowledge

Who is richer in knowledge?

The person who has invested 100 hours into books, YouTube, and articles from one ‘thought leader.’ Or the person who has invested 20 hours into books, TED talks, and journals from five ‘thought leaders?’

Being a molecular physicist is really handy when talking about splitting atoms, but not so great when discussing the merits of cardamom vs. cinnamon in a roll.

There’s no shame in knowing your shit about something you are curious/passionate about, but remember that does not serve as a proxy in other arenas.
