by Scott H. Young (6 mins)
Variability plays an essential and oft-neglected role in mastering complex skills. Considerable research shows that practicing in varied contexts with varied methods and performing with varied task constraints results in more robust learning than simple repetition.

(2) Leverage is brittle
by Seth Godin (1 min)
Debt can be a financial miracle, but it also makes organizations brittle. Leveraged companies often prioritize short-term gains over long-term stability, leading to supply chain issues and potential collapse if property values decrease. Leverage accelerates everything, making it important to recognize and address in order to prevent further damage.

(3) The Winner’s Edge by FS Blog (3 mins)
Taking risks is essential for success, as most lucky people have been willing to take risks at some point. Many talented people are too pessimistic to take risks, preventing them from achieving their potential. It's better to be overly confident than pessimistic, as confidence can serve your skills and vice versa. There are two types of confidence: phony and expert. Phony confidence fools us into taking risks we don't understand, while expert confidence allows us to understand the risks we take. Over-estimating risk can be as costly as under-estimating it when it prevents us from moving forward.
