My friend Michael Alexis keeps a running list of life lessons, the way others might keep a list of half-baked business ideas or ex-lovers. He started compiling this list 3 years ago.
The entire list is worth a deep read. Here’s one I’ve been thinking about a lot:
“I am constantly blown away by how little I know.
If you roll back to any ‘six months ago,’ I thought I knew a lot, but in hindsight I’m surprised I was even functional.
I expect this cycle to continue indefinitely into the future.”
I find this inextricably true in my life as well. I’m confused about how I got anything done six months ago. That’s doubly true if we rewind to a full year.
