Love the practitioners approach! And the reduction of noise (something I went full in since January this year)

“Practitioners, not pundits. Follow people who do.”

This line deserved better treatment than a footnote. There is a huge difference between those who have set foot inside the arena when compared to those who haven’t. When you come across the difference it invariably sticks.

Excellent series.

PS - I’d like to be a friend of book Taleb.

That's why I like books - I can create the role model in my head.

That made me laugh. At least in your head you avoid ANY conflict with the non book version 😳
