Asymmetry for Idiots (like myself): Nassim Taleb Ideas Explanation

1 year ago

In this video we'll go through asymmetry, a concept I was exposed to in Nassim Taleb's books, and most recently, his book, Fooled By Randomness. If you can extract ideas from a book that helps you think more clearly, then you've read a great book. Few books do that. Every one of Nassim Taleb's books have helped me see reality from a different angle or even in a truer light.

I titled the video Nassim Taleb for Idiots, much in the same way there's 'programming for dummies' books and courses. It can take me a while to fully and deeply understand a concept and then be able to apply it to life. I need to be able to explain it simply to show that I can fully understand it, and give examples from life so as to apply the concept.

This is an 'idiot' explanation of asymmetry when compared to Nassim Taleb's books, which can get technical, but they're a joy to read, engaging, and if this concept at all helps you or is at the very least interesting, I highly recommend you pick up his books:

Fooled By Randomness
The Black Swan
Antifragile
Skin in the Game

Each of these books have had an impact on my life and how I see things, helping me think more clearly, and most importantly make better decisions.

A great life is simply the compounded result of a series of great decisions. The better we're able to see reality, how things really are, not how our internal biases influence what we see, the better able we will be to make better decisions, and therefor, live a better and more successful life.

Asymmetry is one concept, if you want me to cover others, let me know.
