The more scarce a person’s resources are, the more likely they are to become addicted to discussing grand issues about the world, because discussing countries, the economy, war, and so on can give a sense of participation and control. But when it comes to truly facing one’s own growth, it requires confronting one’s abilities, choices, failures, and shortcomings, which brings pressure. Therefore, many people are willing to simply study how the world changes, but not how they change themselves. Real growth isn’t knowing more external information; it’s constantly improving your position in the world and your ability to create value and exchange value. Understanding the ultimate purpose of the world is not to become a spectator, but to find your place in it and change your trajectory through action.
