The older I get, the more I realize intelligence is overrated. Intelligent people are more likely to overthink, overplan, and overanalyze. They hide behind motion that doesn't create progress. They fear the judgment of others if they're proven wrong.
The truth is that intelligence is abundant. Courage is not. The people you admire are the ones who had the courage to act. They aren’t more talented than you. They aren’t smarter than you. They just took action when you didn’t.
I often wonder how many extraordinary people wasted their entire lives waiting for permission that never came. Permission isn't granted. It's taken. You get to tap yourself in whenever you want. You can just do things.
Courage beats intelligence.
1. Survivorship Bias:
We focus on the winners and ignore the losers.
We study the college dropout billionaires but ignore the thousands of dropouts who failed.
Success leaves clues, but failure teaches lessons.
@PedroLulaMota Coleguinha @ZattarRafael acha uma excelente ideia usar isso pra abater IR… só se esquece que ganha por um lado e perde muito mais por outro
