But if investment is the topic on the table to discuss, We have to first give deliberate amount of time to discuss about learning and knowledge.

As per Elon musk strategy of working. We have to learn how we can apply “First principle thinking” on investment. Which means, Boil things down to the fundaments of it then start reasoning up from there. If we put it on investment, the fundamentals are

The more effort one put into this knowledge variable, the scale of his growth chart has chances of exponantial amplification.

Even if we just take first fundamenta from the list. Management in itself contain collective threads of human diversity.

If there is collective human beings, it means there is wide range of interest, beliefs, behaviours and pool of different talents come together. One has to learn all those aspects to understand and churn an optimum conclusion over it.

Through mistakes and experiences. But not all the experience and mistakes should be your own. We have the power to learn from others, due to our brain mechanism.
