“There appears to be many advertisements for diversity and quotas and report cards out there. Why are you classifying by race? Why don’t you classify by stupid? How many stupid people have you hired? Or how many rage-filled people? Or how many depressed people? Or how many people who always say the wrong thing? Why are you using race to select between people? Doesn’t that make you a racist? Isn’t there some more important categorization that you can use for humans? You’re better off dividing people by profession, or by their free time activities.”

“Don’t become Google, and stop training your kids to be Google. You just need to be Google long enough to get something in working memory to create something beautiful.

“...if you were alone on an island, would you play chess with yourself? No. You would build a hut and a boat, and make your life better, and that’s what you should learn to do when you’re learning skills, investing in companies, or when you’re helping other people do things. You should do things that actually benefit their life and aren’t wasteful time sinkers.”

“Scivive will call these the great traps. Some of these could be described as circumstance, lack of opportunity, lack of time, complacency, “it’s good enough”, lack of creativity, lack of follow-through, too individualistic, no teamwork, not individualistic enough, or no unique ideas. We can also be held back by greatness that is too small in scale or learning things that become valueless.”
