* planning - The informal calculus of anticipating changes and moving targets is a common sense few people possess.
* self-reflection - The confidence to objectively see yourself as a non-special data point comparable to other data points prevents many failures attributable to bias.
* honesty - Honesty is a skill many people are shockingly terrible at and horrified to encounter. Yet it determines who seeks to do you harm more so than anything else.
* immortality - If the children inherent the rare physical traits that I have grown into there is never reason to feel physical intimidation from other people. Let that define their character more than anything else.

- austincheney 6y agoLook at the resources at PMI: https://www.pmi.org/ https://www.pmi.org/ The greatest challenge to planning is to train yourself to think in terms of moving targets and contingincies. It doesn't matter where a thing is right now or where it will be. What's important is where it can be and working backwards to the present.
- meiraleal 6y agoI'm curious. How does this immortality thing work?
