John Maynard Keynes... When the facts change... I change my Thinking.. What do you do Sir?

Our ability to learn from experience and to adapt one's behavior in light of new circumstances is one of the most powerful traits of Homo sapiens and the main mechanism that can transform us over time and through experience into Homo economicus, at least while the environment is stable.

Evolution at the Speed of Thought...

Modular-Finance... Connecting the Dots... and Combinatory Play...

As Maria Popova puts it...

This understanding of creativity as connection and recombination makes the blank piece of paper not only unhelpful but actually counterproductive. So, ditch it.
