24 分钟What risks are worth taking? When should you ignore feedback and go with your gut? And what did Stephen learn on a fishing trip with the town barber?
Hi.
Nsqers were off this week, so were sharing one of our favorite questions from the NSQ archive.
Well be back next week with a brand new episode.
In the meantime, enjoy this classic conversation.
I think thats a real paradox.
Im Angela Duckworth.
Im Stephen Dubner.
And youre listening to no stupid questions.
Today on the show.
Is there a formula for good advice?
Hey, this is excellent advice.
Why aren't people taking it?
Stephen, I wonder what the very best piece of advice you've ever received was.
Oh, that's so easy.
I can't believe you're even asking me that.
Angela.
Now I really want to know.
The best advice I've ever received was approximately 1.5 years ago when an angel from heaven visited me and said, steven, life is short, and if you know what's good for you, you will ask Angela Duckworth to make a podcast with you and call it no stupid questions.
That was not the best piece of advice you've ever received.
I think it was an angel from heaven.
