Things to consider:

• We need broad principles for understanding the world and critically evaluating overwhelming information

• Broad training allows ability to apply knowledge broadly

• Circular management?

• Living and learning along a meandering path

• Encourage dissent and cross-boundary communication

• Preserve range and inefficiency to get innovation

• Don't feel behind

Mental meandering and personal experimentation are sources of power, and head starts are overrated.
