@alwyn_lau Infinite Jest. Everyone owns it. Few ever read it.

@AlexAndBooks_ None of those titles inspire me to pick up your book. How about something like "Instructions for Becoming More Intelligent by Sitting Alone With Dead People"?

I finished @nntaleb's Real World Risk Institute (#RWRI) two-week program this past week, and it was one of the most insightful, intellectually challenging, and fun learning experiences I've had in a long time.

Investing consistently will.

Exercising once won't make you fit.
Exercising consistently will.

Reading once won't make you smart.
Reading consistently will.

Consistency of action is the key to getting everything you want.

Just how harmful is sleep deprivation? Studies show it costs the U.S. more than $400 billion a year — more than 2% of G.D.P. — in economic loss. It increases error-making and unethical behavior, while impeding focus and creativity. Listen now: https://t.co/iGmWmU23u7

I feel like people do not fully understand how much life changed for our species between 1900 and 2000.

I still struggle to comprehend it.

These events are 66 years apart.
