Author Note: I became obsessed with learning when I was 16 and spent hundreds of dollars on books every month. Fast-forward 25 years, and I:
Have read thousands of books and academic studies in dozens of fields
Have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on courses, masterminds, conferences, and one-on-one coaching
Devote the majority of my time to curiosity-based learning
When I look back, I am struck by this wise quote from Steve Jobs:
"You can't connect the dots looking forward. You can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something -- your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.”
—Steve Jobs
My learning journey has given me unique dots, which have connected into a unique mosaic and belief system I couldn’t have planned for and haven’t seen written about.
This article summarizes my journey and the biggest, life-changing takeaway. I hope you enjoy!
