Wednesday's whippets

It seems to me one of the biggest challenges is moving stuff from the category of you don’t know you don’t know it, to knowing you don’t know it. I know, as I get older I realize that the stuff I know and the stuff I think I know pales in significance in relation to the stuff I know I don’t know.

This makes me think about the training errors I have made and how I need to evolve.

Here is a video with David Rigert in it. Enough said:
