Make sure you stick around for the second half of this episode where I'm going to give a detailed list of things I was wrong about.

These are new things that I haven't discussed before,

and they're going to be very nuanced, subtle things, advanced ways of being wrong, which will be

But before we get there, let's set up some foundation. There's just one core idea in this whole episode,

Is the difficult part getting you to see the power and depth of them and all the ways in which they can be applied

That's the trick

That's why a long discussion is necessary.

Because sure, you can do a 10 minute long video that just tells you some of the basics.

But it's just going to go in one ear and out the other. It's not really going to change how you think about these things, which is the whole point of watching this stuff.

So we need to communicate its power and all the subtlety and nuance and all the different

potential for mistakes and all the psychological trickery behind these otherwise relatively simple

principles.

And then that's what gets you to try to change.

Because the biggest problem in all this work is that it just, you're sitting there watching
