Hello,

This week's edition will discuss why you need to be articulate, fixing infrastructure and environment, and how women select men.


** Be Articulate
------------------------------------------------------------
The best way to teach people critical thinking is to teach them to write. Because there's no difference between that and thinking.

One of the things that blows me away about universities is that no one ever tells students why they should write something. "Well, why are you writing?" "Well, you need the grade." It's like, no! You need to learn to think because thinking makes you act effectively in the world. Thinking makes you win the battles you undertake - and those could be battles for good things. If you can think, speak, and write, you are absolutely deadly.

Nothing can get in your way. So that's why you learn to write. And if you can formulate your arguments coherently, and make a presentation, if you can speak to people, if you can lay out a proposal. People give you money; they give you opportunities; you have influence. That's what you're at university for. Be articulate. Because that's the most dangerous thing, you can possibly be.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson:

"The idea that it's just power that drives people to the top of organizations just isn't true because if it were, we would have many more psychopaths, and they would be way more successful."

Gregg Hurwitz:

“It seems like we can get very little sane discussion in the media on the role that regulation plays in building a renewing infrastructure."
Rick Geddes:

"There has always been, across sectors, this goal of everybody having the same access to services, and that's what infrastructure is all about."

How Women Select Men (Natural Selection) | Jordan B. Peterson
​​
Dr. Peterson:

"The females seem to be using some marker or some set of markers as a proxy indicator for health.

Reasonably, you could say that male human beings do the same thing to female human beings and vice versa. For example, we [human beings] evaluate each other for symmetry which is one of the elements of beauty because healthier people tend to be more symmetrical. "
