Couple of days back I found this amazing piece of advice on my YouTube subscription feed. Jordan B Peterson shared his wisdom in his 2 recent post on his channel. Worth considering!!
If you can think, and speak, and write, you are absolutely deadly.
Learn to write because writing is thinking formalized.
First, you need a problem. A problem that grips you so that you feel a desire to investigate. The next thing you need to do is have something to say about the issue. Reading is brilliant for that.You should read as much as you can about that which addresses the problem.
You now have new information at your disposal, and it’s your job to elegantly formulate that – while being precise in your word choice. You then organize your sentences correctly. And your paragraphs. Hopefully, now the whole thing is coherent enough to make sense.
While this is happening, you are sharpening your tools and integrating your personality at the highest and most abstract level of organization. You’re learning to think. You gain the ability to think by first learning to write. Pick some severe problems and learn to write very, very carefully.
If you are a competent writer, speaker – communicator – you have all of the authority and competence that there is.
And another one…….
Life is short. Create a sense of urgency.
You get older a lot faster than you think. So pay attention. Attention is an underrated faculty it’s not the same as thinking. It’s watching to see what’s in front of your eyes. To guide yourself as a consequence of what you perceive. It’s the faculty that transforms thought if you let it.
And your conscience alerts you, as well. It lets you know when you’re wasting time. And very few people are happy with that. No one escapes that voice of conscience.
