"The big question about how people behave is whether they've got an Inner Scorecard or an Outer Scorecard. It helps if you can be satisfied with an Inner Scorecard."
"All I Want to Know Is Where I'm Going to Die So I'll Never Go There": Buffett and Munger a Study in Simplicity and Uncommon, Common Sense

The Feynman technique follows a few key steps, which I’ve simplified and updated based on my own learning experience:
STEP 1: LEARN
First you must identify the topic you want to understand, research it thoroughly and grasp it from every direction.
STEP 2: TEACH IT TO A CHILD
Secondly, you should write the idea down as if you were teaching it to a child; use simple words, fewer words and simple concepts.
STEP 3: SHARE IT
Convey your idea to others; post it online, post it on your blog, share it on stage or even at the dinner table. Choose any medium where you’ll get clear feedback.
STEP 4: REVIEW
Review the feedback; did people understand the concept from your explanation? Can they explain it to you after you’ve explained it to them? If not, go back to step 1; if they did, move on.

Our task today is to find singular ways to create the new things that will make the future not just different, but better to go from 0 to 1. The essential first step is to think for yourself. Only by seeing our world anew, as fresh and strange as it was to the ancients who saw it first, can we both re-create it and preserve it for the future.
