The bed of Procustes

Image
https://youtu.be/7T6MXfO_yRY The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms  is a  philosophy  no voice video by  Nassim Nicholas Taleb  written in the  aphoristic style . Here you will find sentences displayed in order to make you think. In the Greek myth, Procrustes was a son of  Poseidon .  There he had a bed, in which he invited every passer-by to spend the night, and where he set to work on them with his smith's hammer, to stretch them to fit. In later tellings, if the guest proved too tall, Procrustes would amputate the excess length; nobody ever fitted the bed exactly.

Zen and the art of being a pilot

Image
Being a pilot is not just about flying airplanes. Being a pilot is about living a philosophy that prepares you for moments in the air when your reaction is the difference between life and death... Before you ever walk out to your airplane, start your preflight, or hit the starter, consciously take a deep breath, and then begin. http://disciplesofflight.com/zen-art-pilot/

Peter principle

Image
We live in times of seemingly unending progress - and yet somehow things still always go wrong: trains are late, broadband speeds suck and the promotion always goes to the wrong person. Well, it turns out there's an explanation for all this - and progress itself is the problem. Meet The Peter Principle. The Peter principle assumes that people are promoted because they are competent, and that the task higher up in the hierarchy require skills or talent that they do not possess. It concludes that due to this, a competent employee will eventually be promoted to, and remain at, a position at which he or she is incompetent. https://youtu.be/-ZDdxYBaFsw
