In episode 4, they talk about “power of no” and anti 10,000 hr rule. Looking at my experience in investing, it’s seem counter intuitive — but it’s true. You can burn the midnight oil and get a dental degree, like I did - but it doesn’t equate to doing well in the market. Another example is the VICs - I used to treat its high peak as a selling signal, when research suggests otherwise.
