Notes on The Art of Learning by Josh Waitzkin | Christopher Davis

Focus on the process, not the result. Can’t be scared to loose (invest in loss), and can’t let self-worth be wrapped up in success or failure. Competition and achievement have to be balanced by a love of the learning process (for whatever).

All the notes are great, but particularly liked this one...

Thanks Chris, I don't need to read the book now;)

"When the real-estate bubble burst in 2006, derivatives and securities tied to subprime mortgages began to lose value. As it turned out, the fact that the derivatives had spread the risks throughout the system only worsened things. Dubious debt was all over the place, and nobody knew exactly where."
