Good thinking leads to good conclusions, which lead to... read this great interview.

(In an email, click on the title of the post to read the entire post.)

Good thinking (which includes "good learning") leads to good conclusions about life.  Good conclusions about life lead to a good life.  Great conclusions about life lead to a great life.

People who believe in what "can't be proven false yet can't be proven true" are floating around in DangerLand if they use those beliefs as fundamental truths.  They aren't.  They are in reality hypotheses about the unknowable.  You can believe in them if it is beneficial, but first it is necessary to tie down the true truths (the provably true ones).  (Every human being should read the book of this title, but for now each of them might view my summary page:  The Believing Brain.)

It's your choice, but...

READ THIS...

The Farnam Street blog (which many of you should subscribe to, methinks) just forwarded a two hour interview of such wisdom that I feel compelled to forward access to you.  Generously, they have also allowed access to the transcript of the full interview (!!!!).

This is not just to be read (only to disappear in the ether of LaterLand or NothingLand), but it should be studied and used to derive some things that will actually change your life for the better when you install them into your life.

I won't suggest that you don't read it if you don't study it, but I will suggest that it would be a real pity if you did not fully harvest it for your life, including, probably, some questioning of things you hold to be true (but may not be provably true).

Go to OReading, Happiness, Systems for Decision Making, Habits, Honesty and More and scroll down the page and click "complete transcript" (and I suggest you save it in your Word account or a free Google docs account, which will allow you to highlight, add comments, etc. - use your internet search engine, entering "how to convert a pdf into a google doc").

I would suggest that that transcript is worth going viral... And that it would be a gift to others is you share this blog post in social media or use the little white envelope below for an email.

I will likely do a special "white paper" around this which will tie my site's relevant pages to what the interviewee (Naval Ravikant) says (so that you can read deeper on a topic or assertion).  To be notified of this, a person would need to sign up for the email notification service (up and to the right).

Remember, please, that my site is on a not-for-profit basis, with no other motives than to simply "pay it forward".
