“Giving yourself permission to appear stupid gives you and your team the ability to pose the open, vulnerable questions that lead to learning, challenging convention, and creating breakthrough solutions.” amen!
Thanks for writing this, it clarifies a lot; I often find that true elegance in math or even AI design isn't about avoiding complexity entirely but mastering it so thruoghly you can then distill it into something truly simple and memorable.
wonderful article, succinctly and effectively written. A gift. I appreciate good writing and have found and enjoyed so many gifted writers, thinkers, and speakers here and elsewhere. unfortunately I only get in small sips that fit in the smaller gaps in a day. I am not good at producing the golden snippets that convey more than a long explanation ever could. luckily I don't need to be able to do that to make a living.
what are the tacks that help you get closer to that mark in your writing?
This is very creatively described!
Thank you!
Love this! I wrote a Substack a while ago about having the courage to be "stupid" but this is far better. https://normanwinarsky.substack.com/p/if-you-want-to-be-a-great-founder?utm_source=publication-search

Thank you for reading! Less is more and clarity is king.
I can’t get past that tagline. What successful marriage has ever happened without anybody saying sorry.
When the author was asked what it meant, he replied: "I have no idea, I'm just the author."

Reading every single word out loud! If they don't sound good coming from your lips, they won't sound good between a reader's ears!
