fucking the system

Hey friend, 

There’s a great quote by Bucky Fuller that says 

“You never change things by fighting the exisiting reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the exisiting model obsolete.”

All the greatest innovations weren’t a bloody war against the old way, but such a leap forward, such a great solution, that the old way became irrelevant. 

Bitcoin makes the fed irrelevant. 

Uber makes taxi medallions irrelevant.

This is what I am doing with my latest book. 

See I could spend my life in opposition, fighting the old education system. 

Arguing, debating, trying to change it. 

And there would be a lot of stimulation in that for sure. 

But instead I am creating a model that completely replaces the need for university or college.

Direct opposition to, or the fighting of, a certain system actually perpetuates it. 

The answer is just to build something better. 

We were created to build great things. 

Nothing feels better than to create great things.
