Break with Conventional Wisdom

written by on 2023-07-26

From the book: Untruth: How The Conventional Wisdom is (Almost Always) Wrong.

The author's thesis:

People and organizations with an “agenda” often create problems that are either exaggerated or not problems at all.

The solutions policymakers give us to resolve these “crises” typically make things worse.

When someone does think outside the box, when someone proves that performances once thought impossible are in fact obtainable, new levels of excellence become reachable.
