590 - How to THINK like an Innovator with Matt Ridley
I promise this episode will make you smarter. I've wanted Matt Ridely on the podcast my whole life. He's a major influence on my brain. Every time I read his books, I physically feel my IQ increase. His new book is “How Innovation Works: And Why It Flourishes in Freedom." And I'm already on my third read of it. Here's a break down of what we talk about:
- How to think like an innovator
- Why you don't need pre-approved credentials to have an attention-worthy point of view
- How to develop evidence that backs your outlook in life
- How to overcome credentials bias
- How to overcome confirmation bias
- How to measure if your point of view and create new arguments
- The difference between scientists and innovators
- Who's qualified to predict the future and who ISN'T
And more that will help you think critically, strategically and innovatively
