- crq-yml 3y agoI don't believe the answer is simply "write more", because that leads in the direction of "rise and grind", not epistemic pursuits. Rather, I believe in writing as part of a cycle of grasping knowledge from different angles, like the blind men and the elephant parable. It's the same reason why teaching is seen as a way of gaining mastery, or why limitations are seen as a source of creativity. You have to take opportunities to let go of one part of the elephant and grasp another to gain the holistic knowledge.
