Adam Grant: I think just having permission to shed our past selves is a beautiful thing. He says he's tried to get rid of the version of me that felt a need to self-promote. "I don't care whether people think I'm smart or not, I think they're far more important things in life"
We’re taught that the mark of surefire intelligence is the ability to think and learn. But in his new book, “Think Again,” Adam Grant says that in our turbulent world, there’s a more important skill: the ability to rethink and unlearn. If you can learn how to revise your opinions, check your ego, and admit when you’re wrong, then you’ll be on a path toward wisdom and joy.
