Summary
Learning from the giants injects their knowledge into your brain.
Associating with massively intelligent people and uncommonly successful performers, through their books and other content, infuses all they've understood into your days.
What I'm suggesting to you is that you can add 100 years of greatness/wisdom/value and insight into the rest of your life by installing what I call "The Daily 60 Minute Student Habit" onto your schedule.
I recorded this Mastery Session to walk you through my latest thinking on the power of curiosity as a way to winning.
Remember: Education is inoculation against disruption. And as you know more you can produce better.
Be great. Stay strong. Reach for genius.

| 0:51.7 | world's best ideas, we literally collapse time. |
| 0:56.1 | We literally allow ourselves to take the best of their wisdom and inject it into our lives |
| 1:01.5 | so that we can spend the rest of our lives going deeper, playing higher, doing better work. |
