Yesterday I talked about stupid people. Today I’ll talk about smart people. Both stupid and smart people hold strong to their beliefs. But the beliefs of stupid people are prejudicial and close-minded. The beliefs of smart people are well analyzed and open-minded.
The first step to being smart, as opposed to stupid, is to exercise your intelligence and adaptive capacity, which set you apart from ants and lizards. I told you how human beings are supposed to be “smart”. It isn’t too difficult. Just look for whatever caused you to screw up, fix it, and try not to repeat it.
Read and learn about different ways to attack the same problems. Explore and search for new answers to old questions. Make new questions. Fix old answers. Learn from your mistakes and apply those lessons. Accept your errors and amend them. Adapt to circumstances. Be open to change and criticism. All these are somewhat simplistic ways of being what human beings are supposed to be: smart.
