Every year many of us make resolutions that are almost always self-improvement focused.

I cannot think of a better way to improve yourself than to allocate some time daily towards self-education.

🧵 on my favorite way to do it- listening to podcasts!

Here are my top 6:

The Room Where It Happens @_trwih

The Success Equation - I can’t think of a better book to kickstart 2022.

Thought I’d share some nuggets of wisdom from this piece by Michael Mauboussin, as he lays out how the combination of luck and skill brings about success. Image
Importance of luck increases with competition

Competition drives people to get better, leading to increased & more consistent performance.

When everyone improves performance, there is very little difference between top performers.

Luck can play a pivotal role at this point.
The past is not an accurate description of the future

The human minds tend to always draw lessons from the past connecting dots based on cause and effect.

We forget to include the role luck played in that outcome.

As a result, our lessons learnt are not exactly accurate. Image

I'm currently going over all my favorite books and thought I'd share some of their wisdom here. 1st on the list is Good to Great by Jim Collins. Let's break it down:
Based on a 5 year-long research of public US companies, Collins and his research team were able to provide some insight on what some companies do differently to go from Good to Great, while other companies remain mediocre or make a short trip to greatness, only to fall back down.
First & foremost, all companies must find their ‘Hedgehog Concept’

The wild hedgehog ALWAYS curls himself up into a ball of spikes when threatened by the cunning fox that's out to hunt it down. But this simple strategy is always efficient & saves the hedgehog’s life every time!
