It’s been 13 years since I finished school, and to those of you graduating today — congratulations.
I don’t think I’m in a position to offer life wisdom, but I wanted to share something Nassim Taleb said in a commencement speech that has always resonated with me:
For I have a single definition of success: you look in the mirror every evening, and wonder if you disappoint the person you were at 18 or 20, right before the age when people start getting corrupted by life.
Let him or her be the only judge; not your reputation, not your wealth, not your standing in the community, not the decorations on your lapel. If you do not feel ashamed, you are successful.
I think that’s generally a pretty good compass for navigating the years ahead.

Anyone can read books, travel, collect experiences, and repeat what they’ve learned. The harder task is developing enough self-awareness to understand that your reality is not the universal standard.

Everytime i close my eyes,
Its like a dark paradise
No one compares to you,
But theres no you, except in my dreams tonight

"What makes people stupid is their certainty that they have all the answers.
-..This is whats going on with our government, this is whats wrong with people, thats what they should do.. blah blah
So you are narrowing your focus to this little, tiny lil rail, something that you heard from somebody else, its not even your oWn stupid idea, you absorbed it on the internet, whatever, and you are going down this kind monorail path. Meanwhile the world is all around you, and your just zoomed in or narrowed like that..
Because your so certain you have the answer
So people who are certain of things are very stupid and when they have power, they are very very dangerous. More harm is caused in this world by stupid incompetent people than by evil people "
