Where Do I Get My Information?
The Deep Dive
When people read my articles, they tend to think I’m totally pissin’ gold, or that I’m some kind of information/knowledge Oracle perhaps. Far from it. More likely people think I’m a righteous know-it-all!
Nope. I’m just like the guy next door. In fact I’m probably not even that. I’ve never been top of my class, nor did I glide through my exams. Nothing could be further from the truth. I had to work hard just to keep up with the below-average pupil!
In a strange twist of fate I credit falling behind in life for the abilities and discipline it gave me. My ambition to merely “not be last” was a struggle, but it taught me ways of learning, and how to learn fast!
So I tried harder and learned to read faster, understand quicker and foresee questions and predicaments earlier. I had to plan ahead and anticipate the next wave of questions. After many decades of practise I’m confidently doing it now. But it still takes effort.
Failures became Tools for Success
What I share in my articles are the results of my carefully constructed time. I can be wrong from time to time and please feel free to correct me or at least share your opinion. I grew up being wrong so I’m well use to it although now I’m more careful not to be.
