“The person who says he knows what he thinks but cannot express it usually does not know what he thinks.”
— Mortimer Adler
In this podcast I attempt to bring a number of ideas together.
- The idea that in order to reach a pleasurable state of flow we should be creating something.
- That one of the most powerful ways of learning is to explain something in simple language (The Feynman technique).
- That reflection makes us more productive in the long term.
