Follow Your Own Obsession |
Akira |
He’s got clout |
To the extent that specific technology is taught it’s on the job |
It’s through apprenticeships and that’s why the best careers are the |
apprenticeship careers |
Because those are things society still has not figured out how to train and |
automate yet |
The classic line here is that one of Warren Buffet went to Benjamin Graham when |
he got out of school And Benjamin Graham was the author of the Intelligent |
Investor |
Is a modernized or created value investing as a discipline |
And Warren Buffett went to Benjamin Graham and offered to work for him for free |
And Graham said «Actually your overpriced. |
Free is overpriced» |
And Graham was absolutely right |
When it comes to a very valuable apprenticeship like the type that Graham was |
going to give Buffet Buffet should have been paying him a lot of money |
And that right there tells you that those are skills worth knowing |
Specific knowledge all potentially technical and creative |
So, on the bleeding edge of technology |
The bleeding edge of art |
Or the bleeding edge of communication |
Even today for example there are probably meme lords out there on the internet |
Who can create incredible memes that will spread the idea to millions of people? |

Follow your own obsession |
Follow your own obsession |
Follow your own obsession |
Follow your own obsession |
And somewhere in the back of your mind you can realize that, hey actually this |
obsession I’ll keep an eye out for the commercial aspects of it |
But I think if you go around try to build it a little too deliberately |
If you become too goal-oriented on the money then you won’t pick the right thing |
You won’t actually pick the thing that you love to do so you won’t go deep |
enough into it But I think it’s important that what not start assembling things |
to deliberately |
Because you do want to pay the things where you are a natural |
Everyone is a match for something |
We’re all familiar with that phrase «a natural» |
Oh, this person is a natural at meeting manner |
This person is a natural socialite |
This person is a natural programmer |
This person is a natural programmer |
This person is a natural leader |
So, whatever you are a natural at you want to double down on that |
And then there are probably multiple things you are natural at |
Because personalities and humans are very complex |
We want to be able to take the things that you are natural and combine them So |
that you automatically just to share interest and enjoyment |
End up top 25 or top 10 or top 5% at a number of things |
Follow your own obsession. |
Follow your own obsession |
Whatever you’re a natural at you want to double down on that |
Follow your own obsession Follow your own obsession |
Whatever you are a natural at you want to double down on that |
Follow your own obsession Follow your own obsession |
Whatever you are a natural at you want to double down on that |
Follow your own obsession Follow your own obsession |
Whatever you are a natural at you want to double down on that |
