This is such a crazy tie but that comment about 'not having to have originality for insights to be valuable' reminded me of a clip I saw where a three star Michelin chef, Marco Pierre White, responded to a reporter about making new dishes:
"I believe we live in a world of refinement not reinvention. I don't think you can reinvent, [but] you can refine cuisine..."
Similar to writing, you don't have to invent new things to write about, just 'refine' the topic and add your personal story to it!
And challenge common wisdom! This is how innovation happens.
Really nice comparison with cooking at the top levels! I think that pursuit of excellence is key in finding those parallels in what can appear unrelated fields. The mindset of a (future) master isn't that different across disciplines.
This is a good framework. Not only it helps in writing trading related information, but can be applied to other fields as well where we are trying to convey a message and connect with the readers.
Glad you found it helpful, Jaimin. My father read this stack too, and commented that he could see the wider relevance for both written and spoken content. Nice to see you agree on that one!
