If not, keep working.
The ELI5 Razor

Munger’s Rule of Opinions
“I never allow myself to have an opinion on anything that I don’t know the other side’s argument better than they do.” - Charlie Munger
Opinions aren’t free. You have to work to earn the right to have them.
The Bezos Regret Minimization Framework
The goal is to minimize the number of regrets in life.

(1) Project yourself into the future
