This chapter explores the influence of incentives and personal priorities on human behavior, using the Polaris Star as a metaphor for guiding principles. It contrasts the pursuit of meaningful education with the fleeting allure of social media fame, highlighting the importance of focusing on student results.
Ever wondered why I behave abnormally compared to others? Ever wondered why I use things I tell you not to use? To most people, my behavior looks contradictory. Example: I'll use a YouTube video to tell you to stop watching YouTube videos. When people see this, it makes no sense to them. They think I'm dishonest, hypocritical or just plain weird. Is there a single intent or pattern behind my seemingly contradictory behavior?
YES, there is. And once you understand what it is, everything will make sense to you. Give this a listen.
