Being Able To Learn Faster and Smarter Is More Important Now Than Ever

In an age of AI including generative AI like OpenAI's GPT, functional tasks can be more easily automated. We cannot rely on our experience alone to tell us what the future will bring. We can't expect the next 10 years to look like the last 10 years, except for the fact that more changes will be coming.

Trucks are already driving themselves, tractors can harvest food, software can do the basic work of accountants and lawyers.

We live in a knowledge economy.

Anyone with an internet connection will be competing with you for the same knowledge work. The smallest edge can mean all the difference.

Develop Your Edge by Being A Knowledge Athlete

This is especially true if you want to maintain your earning power.

It is no longer enough simply to have a university degree.

Learn the principles that will allow you to outperform and outcompete in a cut-throat environment.

In this book, the author takes principles from world class athletes and applies them to knowledge work.

Some of the Knowledge Athletes that he looks at include:

Robert Caro

Warren Buffett

Charlie Munger

Ray Dalio

Richard Feynman

Tiago Forte

Albert Einstein
