2.1. The Problem: The Lack of Direction and Depth

Highlights:

  1. Deep learning suffers when we lack a clear individualised direction.
  2. Overcoming the "OK" Plateau (i.e., automaticity).
  3. The Circle of Development (COD)


Further Readings (Optional):

[WARNING: It's long, and not entirely necessary. Only if you want to totally geek out. But Todd Rose' book, the end of Average is really good].

  1. The End of Average by Todd Rose. As mentioned in the video, this book has profound implications on how we see society as a group, and how we see individuals.
