Contrary to popular belief, it’s just as good a way to learn as another podcast, another book, another blog post, another video.

No, maybe not the “7 ways to…” type of learning, but a deeper, more rooted, more valuable variety.

The kind of learning that, when accumulated, amounts to real wisdom.

While the noise of endless content might provide food for thought, it doesn’t leave much room for thought itself.

Without thought, we end up simple automatons, capable of little more than regurgitating what’s already been better said before.

The world has enough automatons without adding our names to the list.

And besides, what a waste of our potential.

To take what’s come before, and instead of regurgitating, choosing to build, transform, evolve, or perhaps dismantle it.

There’s no piece of content telling you how to do the thing that hasn’t been done before.

But if you sit long and listen closely enough, silence will.
