So he suggests you should use structured thinking to be good at "going with the flow". With that implying that someone that is good at going with the flow to start won't be able to be good on both.
I don't think this is true, but only his own mental model playing games with his writings. But otherwise, very interesting thoughts.
- jakejake 13y agoI can't help but be a structured thinker and I have to exert effort to go with the flow. To be honest I probably rarely, if ever, actually go with the flow. If you're strategically thinking that you are going to "go with the flow" then you are actually still using structured thinking. A bit of a catch 22 there.
