Jordan B. Peterson
“If you are not willing to be a fool, you can't become a master.”
Jordan B. Peterson

“It is important to view knowledge as sort of a semantic tree -- make sure you understand the fundamental principles, ie the trunk and big branches, before you get into the leaves/details or there is nothing for them to hang on to.”
Elon Musk

“When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favour.”
Elon Musk

“I think it's very important to have a feedback loop, where you're constantly thinking about what you've done and how you could be doing it better.”
Elon Musk

“I think it’s important to reason from first principles rather than by analogy. The normal way we conduct our lives is we reason by analogy. [With analogy] we are doing this because it’s like something else that was done, or it is like what other people are doing. [With first principles] you boil things down to the most fundamental truths…and then reason up from there.”
Elon Musk
