NOTE

Seek the View of an Impartial Observer

Consider adopting the perspective of a totally impartial observer when evaluating a situation, as they can offer the best view of both sides. Emulate the approach of individuals like Charlie Munger, who refuses to take a position on any matter unless they can articulate the opposing side. This practice fosters intellectual discipline, encouraging thorough research and accountability. Acknowledging the limits of one's knowledge and refraining from forming opinions for the sake of sounding intelligent is crucial for making informed decisions.
