Umbhali we-creators who feel behind while building something unprecedented Umbhali we-creators who feel behind while building something unprecedented I-Taleb yeTurkey Kwiintsuku ezininzi iintsuku, i-turkey iye ithathwe ngu-butcher. Kwiintsuku zonke, 'i-analytics' zayo zangaphakathi zithintela ingqiqo olufanelekileyo kunye ne-statistical confidence: elandelayo iya kuba kakuhle kunokuba ngexesha elidlulileyo. Iziqinisekiso zikhuthaza, i-pattern engabonakaliweyo, le ngexesha elidlulileyo. Kwiintsuku 1,001: I-Thanksgiving. I-Worldview ye-Turkey yahlukileyo kwihambe ngexesha elifanayo. Ngokwenza oku, i-reality isebenza: iziganeko ezininzi ezininzi ziye zithunyelwa. Zifumaneka njengama-breakthroughs ezininzi ezininzi ezininzi ezidlulileyo. Kwimeko yeTurkey, i-Black Swan. Kwimeko ye-Massaker, i-Mart. I-Turkish Trap yeSociety Yintoni oku kuthatha xa ukholelwa ukuba iiplani ezibonakalayo kwi-society. Njengokuba i-turkey, sinokufutshane ngempumelelo kwi-conventional paths. I-society ibekwe kwinkqubo esibonakalayo: ukufikelela kwi-school, ukufumana i-job "umthandayo", ukufikelela kwi-escale ye-corporate. Kwixesha elide, kufuneka ukhuseleko. Ufumana i-paychecks eziqhelekileyo, kwaye umzila elandelayo ibonakalisa. I-analytics yakho ye-internal (i-norms ze-society, iingcebiso ze-elder) zibonakalisa ukuba le nkqubo ye-linear yintloko lokuphumula kunye nokufumana. Kodwa le izindlela ezininzi ezibonakalayo, ezininzi ezininzi phambi yenu, ziyafumaneka Zininzi iintlobo ze-"Matrix" apho i-potential yakho yokwenene. Ukholelwa ukuba ixabiso yakho kuxhomekeke ngqo kwimeko yakho, kwaye ukuba ingcebiso yakho iyathembekile nangokufanelekileyo. unfulfilling, boring, and repetitive scammed Uyakwazi ukufumaneka ngalinye, ukuba uqhagamshelane i-aspirine okanye i-aspirine, ukuba uqhagamshelane ngempumelelo okanye uqhagamshelane ngempumelelo. —umthamo ukuba akuyona kuphela i-shock, kodwa ngokwenene ukusuka kubo. antifragility Ukucinga i-antifragile kuqhathaniswa, ngexesha, kunye ne-banker. Yintoni? Ngenxa yokuba i-antifragile isebenza kwi-environment kunye ne-feedback epheleleyo kunye ne-immediate Umqhubi we-taxi uqhagamshelane ne-traffic, iimfuno ze-client, kunye neengxaki ze-local; iimali yayo yenzelwe ngqo kwi-problem-solving yayo. I-prostitute ibonelela ngqo, ixesha elifanelekileyo kwi-feedback ye-"imveliso" yayo kunye ne-reputation yayo, kunye ne-success yayo kuxhomekeke kwi-engxulumene ngqo neengxaki ze-human. Professions like taxi drivers or prostitutes decentralized risk Ukugqiba, umbanki, eyenziwe ngamafutha ze-bureaucracy kunye ne-centralized systems, sinokufumana iziphumo ezingenalutho kwimiphumo ezincinane. I- "i-turkey problem" yayo ifumaneka xa iziphumo ezihambelanayo kwi-system esebenzayo ezisebenzayo kwindawo ekugqibeleni ekugqibeleni. I-crisis ye-financial, umzekelo, kwaye i-worldview yayo jikelele (kwi-carriers) ifumaneka. Zifumaneka ukhuseleko kwihlabathi ebonakalayo. Black Swan event Iingcamango ezisemgangathweni ezininzi ezibonisa iinkampani ezithile, okanye izindlela zokusebenza kwimeko, zihlanganisa: Ukusetyenziswa kwe-volatility kunye ne-small errors: I-constant, i-shocks ye-small inikeza i-feedback emangalisayo kunye ne-force ye-adaptation. I-Decentralization kunye ne-Local Control: Ukunciphisa iinkqubo ezininzi kunye ne-centralized, kunceda ukuxhaswa kwimveliso ezininzi kunye nokunciphisa i-catastrophic failure. I-Hud in the Game: Iziphumo ezizodwa zokusebenza, ukuqinisekisa ukuba izixazululo ziye zithunyelwe kunye neengxaki zangaphakathi. Optionality: Umthamo ukuthatha izikhwama ezininzi ezincinane kunye neengxaki ezincinane, kunye neengxaki ezincinane. I-redundancy kunye ne-modularity: Ukunikela iindawo ezininzi, ezininzi ezahlukileyo ezisebenzayo xa ezinye ziyafumaneka. iimveliso ngokufunda: Ngaba ndingathanda kwi-path where the "butcher" (i-society, i-employee traditions, i-system predictable) controls my Thanksgiving? Ngaba ndingathanda i-comfort kunye ne-predictability ngexabiso yokukhula kwimveliso yayo? spot this in your life Yintoni iziphumo zayo ziquka ukulungiselana ngokufanelekileyo kunye nokufunda kwiingxaki ezincinane, okanye ndifumene iinkqubo ebonakalayo ekubunjweni iingxaki zangaphantsi? Ayikho iingqungquthela. Thola iinkqubo kunye nokufunda iinkqubo eziza kukunceda ukuba akuyona kuphela, kodwa ukuvelisa kwi-uncertainty. The Paradox of Invisible Progress Ukuba utshintshe umdlalo we-exponential, kufuneka ubona ukuba utshintshe. Kwiminyaka emininzi. Yinto ayikho ingxaki kwinkqubo. Yinto ingxaki engqongileyo yokusebenza njani iinkqubo ezininzi kunye nemiphumo ye-n-order. Iingcebiso, iingcebiso, kunye neentsimbi zihlanganisa ngokucacileyo phambi kokuba zihlanganisa ngokucacileyo. Yonke iingcebiso ezikhangayo ibandakanya i-capability stack yakho. Yonke iiyure ebandayo ibandakanya ukucaciswa kwimveliso. Yonke iingcebiso ibandakanya into malunga neengcebiso ezininzi. Kodwa apha ingxenye eninzi: the accumulation is invisible to you, too. Uyakwazi ukufumana ukuba ungenza. Uyakwazi ukufumana ukuphazamiseka kwakho. Uyakwazi ukucacisa i-intuition yakho. Umntu uye kwiminyaka eyadlulayo awukwazi ukucacisa iimfuno ezifanayo ngokuzenzakalelayo namhlanje, kodwa le nophuhliso iya kuba ngokupheleleyo kwi-mind yakho. Yintoni iingxaki ezininzi abaninzi bafumane. Zibonisa iziphumo zophando kwindawo olungabikhoyo. Ukulungiselela ukuvelisa Nazi i-paradox eyenza abathengi abaninzi: Ngaba Ngenxa yokuba awukwazi ukufumana ukuba uneminyaka embalwa. Ukuphumelela ngokugqithisileyo kweemvakalelo, ukulungiselela ngokugqithisileyo kweengqithiselo, ukutshintshwa kweemvakalelo. Njengomnqweno, sinyanzelwa kwimvakalelo ye-confirmation bias, ukholelwa ukuba iimvakalelo ezidlulileyo zibonakalisa iziphumo ezidlulileyo. underestimate your growth Ngaba Ngenxa yokuba unemibuzo i-effect ye-compound ye-consistency. Iintsuku ezidlulileyo "i-success overnight" yaba ixesha elidlulileyo yokukhula. I-success ngokufanelekileyo inokukhawuleza ukunyuka kwimveliso yakho. I-absence of immediate problems is often mistaken for evidence of safety-a classic case of confusing absence of evidence with evidence of absence. overestimate your growth I-motivation ifumaneka kwi-deprivation. Emva kokuphumelela i-hunger, i-drive ifumaneka. Yoko ke ukufikelela kwi-results yi-trap. I-motivation epheleleyo akukwazi ukufika kwi-payoff, nto leyo engapheliyo. Kwakhona kufuneka ifumaneka kwi-process - i-"playing around" ebonakalayo kodwa ibekwe isiseko ye-return ye-exponential. Iintlobo ze-linear ziquka i-99% "ngoku" kodwa i-100% engabikho kwi-pursuit yayo ye-asymmetrical upside. Le mdlalo efanelekileyo kuxhomekeka kwiimidlalo ezincinane kunye nokwakha i-leverage engabonakaliyo apho i-outliers ziquka imiphumela - akuyona iingcali ezincinane kwihlabathi elidlulileyo. I-Inversion ye-Suffering Zifunyenza i-map ebonakalayo, i-time-line ebonakalayo, i-outcome ebonakalayo. Zifunyenza ngokufanelekileyo i-potential ebonakalayo kwi-illusion ebonakalayo ye-predictability. Linear people suffer from uncertainty. Ukuba umzila usebenza ngokufanelekileyo, ngokukhawuleza kakhulu, ngokukhawuleza kakhulu, kunceda ukuba zithembisa ukuba zibonise into ezincinane - into enesixhenxeyo okanye iipotenzial yayo i-limited. inkcazelo, kodwa ukusuka , nto leyo kuthetha ukuba awukwazi ukuxhaswa kwi-unknown, apho i-innovation efanelekileyo kunye ne-return asymmetrical zihlanganisa. Zihlanganisa i-comfort ye-known ye-possibility ye-unprecedented. Exponential people, paradoxically, are disturbed by certainty. Ukucinga Ukuphazamiseka Here's the critical inversion: this discomfort is a signal, not a symptom of failure. Ukuba unemibuzo emangalisayo emangalisayo, ngoko ke ungenza imidlalo emangalisayo kakhulu. Ukuba i-timeline yakho ibonelela ngokupheleleyo, uye uyenza ngenxa ye-variable emangalisayo-predictability kwi-growth ye-exponential. Ukuba uyazi Yintoni unayo ukwakha, kunokwenzeka kakhulu ukuba unayo kuphela ukuguqula into efanayo. Ukucinga I-discomfort yinto ayinxalenye ukuba unayo into embalwa. I-sign that you are doing something that matters. I-crisis is a sign that you are doing something wrong. Ukuphumla kweemvavanyo - ukuchithwa kweemvavanyo yokufumana iinkcukacha ezintsha, ukuxhaswa kweemvavanyo eyenziwe kwi-fire of the unknown. productive discomfort Kuyinto ezahlukileyo ukusuka leyo esekelwe ukusuka kwimveliso okanye ukufumana ukhuseleko ngeengxaki zokuzalwa ngokufanelekileyo njenge-doom-scrolling ephakeme, ukubheja, okanye i-pornography. Izithuba zayo zibonakalayo kwi-decay, ngaphandle kokuphumelela. Umdlali owenziwe ngexabiso usebenzisa i-signal ye-discomfort ukuba uqhagamshelane, ukufundisa, kwaye ukwakha, ngaphandle kokuphumelela. degenerative suffering The Compound Delusion I-Compound I-Illusion Ndiyathanda into engekho kwakhona malunga ne-exponential growth: you can't feel it happening. I-brain yakho iye yenzelwe ukucacisa ukuguqulwa kwe-linear. Xa kukho into yokukhula i-1% ngosuku, akufikelela njengoko ukucaciswa. Kodwa i-1% ngosuku ngexesha elinyanga i-37x ukucaciswa. Ukuphumelela okuhlobene: progress and the feeling of progress are completely different phenomena. I-progress is systematic. I-sense of progress is emotional. I-progress compounds. I-sense of progress is cyclical. I-progress is invisible until it is obvious. I-sense of progress is immediate but meaningless. Uninzi lwabathanda ngokufanelekileyo ngokufanelekileyo kunokuba ngempumelelo ngokufanelekileyo. Zifuneka umsebenzi ebangela ukujabulela ngempumelelo ngexesha lokufanelekileyo kunokuba kwenziwe ngempumelelo ngokufanelekileyo. The Long Game Mathematics I-Long Game yeMathematics : Ukusebenza kwiminyaka engama-40. Qhagamshelana ngexabiso. : Ukusebenza iinyanga ezisi-10. Qhagamshelana nawo yonke into. Linear people Exponential people Kodwa izifundo zangaphambili ngaphezu kwakhona. 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 5 Linear systems are additive : 1×1.1×1.1×1.1×1.1 = 1.46 Exponential systems are multiplicative Yintoni : 1 + 1 = 3 complex systems are emergent Xa utshintshe iinkqubo eziqhagamshelane kunye nabanye, yonke into kubaluleke ngaphezu kwinqanaba yayo. Ukubhaliweyo uya kubaluleke ukufikelela. Ukufikelela kwakho uya kubaluleke ukufikelela. Ukwakhiwa kwakho uya kubaluleke inethiwekhi yakho. Inethiwekhi yakho uya kubaluleke iinkonzo zakho. Yintoni yintoni i-curve ye-exponential ekugqibeleni iye ye-vertical. It is not just compound interest. It is compound systems creating emerging properties. The Capability Trap I-Capability I-trap : Ukusuka phakathi apho uye kwaye apho ufuna ukuba. The Gap : Ukubala ukuthuthukiswa kwi-gap kunokuba yi-capability yakho yokuvula. The Trap Nazi iingcebiso elandelayo yonke into: the gap doesn't shrink linearly. Your capability to close it grows exponentially. I-Gap ingaba akufutshane nangona. Unemibuzo ukuba ndingathanda ukuba uye kwindawo efanayo ngexesha elidlulileyo. Uyakwazi ukuba kwindawo efanayo, kodwa unemibuzo engaphezulu. Xa ziquka engapheliyo, awukwazi ukufumana iimiphumo efunyenweyo kwi-life (ukugqiba i-gap phakathi kwindawo yakho kwaye apho ufuna ukuba). Kodwa ngexesha lokugqibela, unako ukufumana izilwanyana eziluncedo ukufumana i-gap, kwaye kunye neeyuncedo, unako ukufumana i-gap phakathi kwindawo yakho kwaye apho ufuna ukuba ngexesha elifanayo. Ngaba unako ukucacisa ukucaciswa kwihotele, kodwa unako ukufumana izixhobo ukucacisa ukucaciswa kwihotele kwihotele. Xa uqala, ukulungiselela i-$10,000 i-gap ebonakalayo. Ngoku, ukulungiselela i-$100,000 i-gap ibonakalayo. I-gap ebonakalayo, kodwa i-capacity yakho yandisa ngokukhawuleza. Uninzi lwabathanda ngenxa yokubala into olungabikhoyo. Zibonisa i-gap kunokuba i-capability yayo yokuvula. I-Gap yi-only delay between building the system and seeing the results. I-Gap yi-only delay between building the system and seeing the results. The system is the progress. Yinto njengoko ukwakha i-rocket ye-fucking ngexesha abantu abahlanganyeli zithembisa kwindawo yayo. Nangona kunjalo, ungenza kwindawo efanayo apho uqala ukwakha i-rocket, kodwa xa uqala. Kapoof! The Asymmetry of Exponential Games I-Asymmetry ye-Exponential Games Risk symmetric/reward. Work an hour, get paid for an hour. I-Risk/reward asymmetric. Ukusebenza iminyaka emininzi, ukufumaneka kweminyaka emininzi. Linear games Exponential games Kodwa i-asymmetry ayikho kuphela kwi-results. It is in the process. : Ukusebenza okuqhubekayo → Imiphumo okuqhubekayo Linear process : Ukusebenza okuqhubekayo → Imiphumo okuqhubekayo → Imiphumo ezininzi Exponential process Umdlalo we-exponential unxibelelwano olufanayo kunye nexesha, i-feedback, kunye ne-measurement. Ngaba unxibelelwano kwi-clock. Ngaba unxibelelwano kwi-entropy. Yonke imihla elidlulileyo yokuzonwabisa kuyinto yokuzonwabisa. Yonke inkqubo ekubunjwa kuyinto ukuthuthukiswa. Yonke umgangatho olufunyenwe yi-compound interest. Kodwa nayiphi na le nto ayibonakalisa kwi-scoreboards ezivamile. The Profound Realization Ukuphumelela okuhlobene You are not the same person who started this journey. Umngcipheko phakathi kwindawo yakho kwaye apho ufuna ukuba ziyafumaneka kunokuba ubukhulu efanayo, kodwa unomntu efanayo ekubeni. Uyakwazi ukufumana iimfuno ezikhoyo. Uyakwazi ukufumana iimfuno ezikhoyo. Uyakwazi ukufumana iimfuno ezikhoyo. Uyakwazi ukufumana iimfuno ezikhoyo. Uyakwazi ukufumana iimfuno ezikhoyo. The journey isn't just changing your circumstances. It's changing who you are. Kwaye umntu uye uye uye kwenza izinto umntu uye awukwazi ukufikelela. Your Only Job Ukusebenza Kwangathi Build systems. Fill holes. Qhagamshelana umdlalo. I-curve ye-exponential iya kuthatha yonke into. Uninzi abantu abalandeli ngexesha lokugqibela lokugqibela lokugqibela. Abalandeli i-flat part ngenxa yokukhangisa. Abalandeli imidlalo ngexesha elandelayo. Ngaba ungumthandayo. Ngaba ungumthandayo. Yintoni umntu owaziwa ukuba ukhangela njengoko ukhangela i-part of winning the exponential game. If you're playing the long exponential game and feel like you're behind, you're not behind. You're exactly where you're supposed to be. The discomfort is the signal. The uncertainty is the price. The delay is the feature.
