Whats a second brain?
You browse millions of things (but don't remember a single one). They want you to build a second-brain, to recall things instantly, using digital tools to store things for future reference.
Which is great for productivity. But really shitty for creativity.

Which is great for productivity. But really shitty for creativity.
While you're sourcing, storing and classifying things in some app/system, you use sacred time & forget to use your mind.
And when you don’t use it, you loose it.
The mind is where form new thoughts, ideas, and imagine possibilities. Its where all creative thinking happens.

I am blessed to live in a "time of noobs" ❤
I am an impostor and a noob.
There is so much I do not know.
Why am I blessed? Because I can openly share my path of learning all that stuff.
This way I can show that it is normal to struggle while learning.

We, the friendly army of noob friends, need you.
We need you to be yourself.

Books that have made me a better decision maker for my patients.
1. Thinking, Fast and Slow - Daniel Kahneman
2. Antifragile - Nassim Taleb
3. The Black Swan - Nassim Taleb
4. Stumbling Upon Happiness - Daniel Gilbert
5. Super Thinking - Gabriel Weinberg, Lauren McCann

1. Thinking, Fast and Slow - Daniel Kahneman
This taught me about System 1 thinking. Near-instantaneous; minimal effort. Driven by instinct and experience. System 2 thinking is slower and requires more effort. It is conscious and logical.
Both have strengths/weaknesses.

2. Antifragile - Nassim Taleb
This taught me how to think about systems. Fragile - breaks easily. Robust - adequate, persists unchanged (medical systems lean toward robustness). Antifragile - Improves with uncertainty and feedback.
I aim to be Antifragile in my mental models.

How to think in First Principles like Elon Musk🧵
Individuals that employ first principles thinking are one step ahead as they plan and build for the future.
We start with multiple principles in life governed by our values, perceptions, belief system and how we learn to reason.
We start with multiple principles in life governed by our values, perceptions, belief system and how we learn to reason.
The principles may be sound when we first started, but questioning if they still apply requires debunking old theories and creating new versions of reality for ourselves.
It requires embracing a new mindset that identifies when our old way of doing things is obsolete

Surgical Decision Making Heuristics 🧵
I estimate a #neurosurgery on call doubles the usual 3000 decisions we make each day.
A "razor" cuts away what is unnecessary and simplifies decision making.
Here are 10 surgical razors to sharpen your decisions:

Occam’s Razor: (The OG Razor)
"Plurality must never be posited without necessity." If the patient with the enlarging CSDH has worsening falls, its likely the CSDH and not the new medicine they’ve started.

Limitations of an Optimized Mindset

1/ Finding an optimal solution through an efficient algorithm is how a trained technologist looks at any computational problem.
But as soon as this mindset is extended to real-world problems, the majority of inefficiencies become annoying.

Surely every serious national security strategist understands the distinction btwn Govts Geopolitical decisions and th military's detailed scenario planning & action program. A govt can decided on basis of expected value of outcome or worst case scenarios-the latter is paralyzing
2/ns The critical issue in China-India conflict is that,as of now (2020), #China controls the #escalatory ladder. So India's #National #Security Apparatus has to make assumptions about when and how #CCPpla will escalate, if it loses the first few steps on its escalatory ladder!
3/ns The worst case scenario for us is therefore the one in which after loosing previous escalations, #CCP China escalates to a full fledged war/attack on India, by shifting US-facing troops and highest quality equipment towards India. This has proved paralyzing for past Govts!🤔
