For in terms of learning about how you can become useful, as you mentioned, how you can have the most positive impact, I'd encourage people to read a lot of books. Just read. I mean, basically, try to ingest as much information as you can, and try to also just develop a good general knowledge.
So, so you at least have like a rough lay of the land of the knowledge landscape. Try to learn a little about about a lot of things. Cuz you might not know what you're really interested. How would you know what you're really interested in if you at least aren't like doing a peripheral exploration of broadly of of the knowledge landscape?
And you talk to people from different walks of life and different industries and professions and skills and occupations. Like, just try, you know, learn as much as possible, then search for meaning, and then try to find something where there's an overlap of your talents and what you're interested in. So people may be good at something, but or they may have skill at a particular thing, but they don't like doing it.
Mhm. So you want to try to find a thing where you're that's a good a good combination of of your of the things that you're inherently good at, but you also like doing. And reading is a super fast shortcut to to figure out which where are you? You both good at it. You like doing it, and it will actually have positive impact.
Well, you got to learn about things somehow. So read, reading a broad range, like just really read. You know, one point when I was a kid, I read through the encyclopedia, so that was pretty helpful.
