I love this..."Stop asking if it's true. Start asking if it matters" or even relevant to me? Thank you for sharing...

I love this. Makes me have an even deeper appreciation for education and learning. Always loved school, but it hit deeper into college with the opportunity to study things that interested me and my path. Great piece.

Yup. True vs. Useful. Loads of things are True. But amassing vast collections of True things, if not also Useful, can eventually just be a burden.

Being right feels good. Being useful changes outcomes.

This piece nails the difference—and why utility, not correctness, is what actually compounds.

Is a truth relevant to me only? Is this argument relevant? Is this laughter relevant? If it is how will i use it?! Those are tough questions! Thank you...
