Why The Best Kids Are Rarely The Best Adults

📕If you liked this video, check out my new book, Inside the Box: https://www.amazon.com/Inside-Box-Con... In this video, I'm circling back to the core idea of my book Range — that sampling broadly early on, trying different things, and resisting the pressure to specialize too soon is one of the most underrated paths to long-term success. I'll get into why that is, share some modern examples, and break down a groundbreaking new study (just published) that backs all of this up. If you've ever felt behind because you didn't pick "your thing" early — or you're raising a kid and wondering whether to push them down one path or let them roam — this one's for you.
