EH - 59 : Wisdom

... to extract wisdom like this, one must become observant. Very observant, because these lessons don’t come pre-labeled as lessons so they’re easy to miss. In fact, they don’t look like anything other than ordinary everyday experiences because, to most people, they aren’t anything other than ordinary everyday experiences. But for those who understand this secret, they are much more. They are invaluable.

Blair Warren seems to give very good advice, in that it agrees with much of the advice that dr. lenny gives. Watching, observing, taking notes and investing time in thought is what brings understanding. If you know something by figuring it out, then you have a means to compare it to other things. But doing, rolling up your sleeves and being there first hand is when experience in the little things that make the bigger things. Depth, then breadth. Watch, Try, Get help, Try again, Try again, Ask, watch, Do, succeed, smile.
