So glad I stumbled on this article. Came to me exactly when I needed it. Thanks @TaylorPearson:disqus

Great post (here and the boyd page)!

Love it!
Tomas Lau sent me here, I’m glad he did.
I’m living in Sharm el Sheikh atm and it’s whispering, “Work hard, and schedule leisure time.” Or something like that, I’m a novice when it comes to hearing whispers.

I feel like Carnegie’s book could complement AntiFragile but neither book refuted the other. AntiFragile serves as a guidebook to authenticity in a different way than Carnegie. Two approaches, but if you think that Nassim Taleb’s books have not influenced greatly and raised awareness universal principles in an important way, you miss the point being made here by Taylor.

This is so thorough. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for taking the time to share this.

Eye-Opener !!! Clearly mentioned all my flaws !!! F…Awesome !!!

I loved Antifragile, and there is much in there that makes a lot of sense, though I found that rather to my frustration, I cannot really put the principles to any good use. I can’t work out whether my own life or the country in which I live, are fragile or not, or how to improve the situation. The book has much general advice, but I have never been able to work out how to apply it to my own specific situation.

Very timely post. I was just reviewing my goals for the last quarter and preparing for the next quarter. As I did a ‘post-mortem’ on the reason’s why I failed on some of the ‘big rocks’ I had planned for the last quarter it became apparent to me it was due to a lack of clarity on what I needed to focus on. Reading this post makes it clear in my mind that lack of clarity and lack of definition are more or less the same thing!

Great post!

Thanks Alabi
