Tommy Angelo : Acting Last

published almost 5 years ago

Acting last is like taking a drink of water. We don’t have to understand why it’s good for us to know that it is. And the benefits are unaffected by our understanding of them.

speaking of water, one of my favorites parts from "Elements of Poker."

"And there we have the meaning and the consequences of resisting reality. At regular life, resistance is futile and painful. At poker, resistance is not only futile and painful, but also expensive.
If only we could be like water. When water moves, it follows the path of least resistance. Water would be good at poker."
