weaknesses and biases
All weaknesses arise from certain extremities and all successes are traceable to certain extremities. So defend your extremities, and in order to not suffer from the accompanying weaknesses, choose the environments you walk into carefully. All weaknesses manifest themselves contextually. Learn how to manage the context, not the weakness.
Similarly, your biases are your strengths. Defend them fiercely. They are what differentiates you from others. Thinking is methodological. Creativity is overrated. (Both can be learned.) What matters is the input and input is shaped by biases.
