In Nassim's book The Black Swan (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/081297381X) , he highlighted for readers the unusual and unpredictable events that underlie almost everything about our world. Now with his book Antifragile, readers are presented with why we should embrace these uncertainties. The ideas and concepts that Nassim presents today for our listeners are beyond anything you have heard before.
Nassim and James talk about several ways that disorder in your life will actually make you stronger. As Nassim tells James in the interview, "If you don't have variability in your life, you are not human."
The key is to take these shocks and disruptions and become - as Nassim says - antifragile, making you stronger, more creative, and better able to adapt to each new challenge you face.
Nothing is certain in this world; this episode will have you questioning everything you thought you knew.
