Lack of innovation in LANGUAGE destroys our ability to think and communicate CLEARLY
E.g. "Ego"
Some people use it to describe a grandiose sense of self
Others use it to describe the NOTION of a SELF
It feels like there should be more than ONE word

Another word is "Entrepreneur"
Joe Rogan wouldn't fit the classical role of an entrepreneur
But he's making $100 million a year with 90%+ margins
He's more of an entrepreneur than 99.9% of entrepreneurs despite showing no clear entrepreneurial tendencies

If you study most arguments online, a significant amount could be resolved by defining the words they are debating

The most creative people I know are creating new words and concepts all the time
It's only when I heard @EricRWeinstein talk about concepts like the "Gated Institutional Narrative" or "High Agency" did I begin to innovate and create my own words and terminology.
