FIRST PASSION, THEN TRAINING

podcast & book: E.O. Wilson On ‘Letters To A Young Scientist’ | On Point with Tom Ashbrook

This famous scientist and naturalist has quoted Confucius:
"I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand."
and explained how current education system is wrong
by insisting on learning many details
before doing what one cares about the most.
He would like this changed, to focus on passion first
and training to supports that, not the other way around.
