277: The U-Curve of Certainty & Where Most Experts Go Wrong. PART 11, The Myth of Failure Series

Part 11 of 12, of Season 5: ‘The Myth of Failure an Re-framing of Risk.’ The first time we’ve discussed ‘The U-Curve of Certainty’, a theory about nature, chance, risk, truth, predictions, generalisations and prescriptions, which helps us cut through the b.s. of life and wasteful planning. In contrast, we get clarity about what we can control and believe in.
