GM Sharing what I consider one of my most important slides from a recent BTC in DC speech because it helps us understand why real change is slow and predictable. Zero to one moments are always possible - just rare as people reinforce their own view of the world from their past experiences. (Tuning out all things that don’t match their entrenched view) And while this is easy to see in those β€œother” people - we mostly miss the very thing in ourselves. (And seeing it in ourselves is the real superpower) image

So true Jeff. The most important skill I’ve learned is to treat the external world as a mirror. I’m over a decade into this experiment and the emotional sobriety I now experience is priceless. If one is brave enough to really commit and persist with this perspective they will absolutely transform their experience of reality, and of what it means to exist with it.
So eloquently put Jeff . It is re-enforcing what David Deutsch advocates in his book β€œ The Beginning of Infinity β€œ Humans are always at the beginning infinity because we are always seeking a better way/explanation of how things work. Hence your statement that β€œThe natural state of the free market is deflationary β€œ . We have never live without n a β€œnatural state” because of β€œbullies/government β€œ prevents criticism which is the only way we can arrive at a better explanation for any problem.
