1
If you want to think more clearly than 99% of people,
2
learn more quickly, and master almost anything in the age of AI,
3
you need to bring back one forgotten skill.
4
How to think on paper.
5
I've spent decades in boardrooms and tech companies worth billions,
6
and the sharpest thinkers I know still reach for pen and paper.
7
So in this video, I'm going to share a complete system for how to think,
8
how to learn, how to create using the most powerful thinking tool you already own.
9
One that costs you a dollar.
10
Sure, paper will not replace your keyboard or AI today,
11
but it can make you much harder to replace.
12
So let's get started.
13
The first thing we want to talk about is why pen is mightier than the prompt.
14
Writing is slower than typing.
15
Typing slower than prompting.
16
But But with each step,
17
we hand off one more layer of our thinking to a machine.
18
We humans have been thinking with our hands for thousands of years.
19
There is a university in Norway,
20
NTNU, and the scientists there found that when we write on paper,
21
the parts of our brain that light up are the same parts where ideas,
22
memories, and learning take place.
23
But the world we live in today is very different.
24
We prompt more than we produce.
25
We used to shape ideas on paper.
26
Now we just rent them,
27
we select them from whatever the machine throws at us.
28
As the French philosopher Descartes once said,
29
I think, therefore I am.
30
Well if you outsource your thinking, what's left of you?
31
Here's what surprised me the most.
32
Writing on paper literally shapes your thoughts.
33
That's why the top leaders still think on paper.
34
For instance, Da Vinci kept 7,000 pages of handwritten books.
35
Drawings, diagrams, sketches, blueprints, whatever he could get his hands on.
36
Charles Darwin worked out the theory of evolution by drawing diagrams.
37
And sure, you would say,
38
well, computers weren't invented then,
39
so they had to write on paper.
40
But the same applies for business leaders and thinkers today.
41
From Richard Branson to Nobel Prize winning author Toni Morrison,
42
and from Michelle Obama to Sam Altman,
43
their ideas start on a piece of paper.
44
And here's the surprise.
45
On paper, you're not just writing, you're drawing by hand.
46
And our brain treats it very differently than just typing.
47
When you type, every keystroke is the same motion.
48
of your fingers pressing down A or Z,
49
love letter or legal brief.
50
The physical act of creating each letter is identical,
51
which is great for speed.
52
But when you write by hand,
53
every letter is a unique physical experience.
54
The pressure of the pen,
55
the speed of the stroke,
56
the curve of each shape.
57
In neuroscience, this is called haptic perception.
58
Your brain tags each idea with a sensory fingerprint.
59
The thought does not just live on paper,
60
it lives in your body.
61
Every letter you write gives shape to your thoughts.
62
Current science shows that even doodling seems to lower cortisol and reduce performance anxiety.
63
And here's my favorite example.
64
J.K.
65
Rowling wrote the first chapters of Harry Potter by hand in a cafe in Edinburgh while she was surviving on government benefits,
66
anxious about her future.
67
A single mother, single pen,
68
a piece of paper, 450 million copies sold.
69
Now, of course, not everything belongs on paper.
70
But once you know when to use paper,
71
it changes is how you think,
72
how you create, and how you even feel.
73
Here's the framework I call the three originals.
74
The first one is invention.
75
What do you do when you need to generate something that doesn't exist in the world yet?
76
A new idea, a solution, a direction, a strategy?
77
Use paper to write whatever comes to mind.
78
The rule here is simple.
79
Create.
80
Don't criticize.
81
While you're regenerating, tell your internal judge to take a vacation.
82
Be free, be messy, write whatever comes to mind,
83
fragments, flashes of completely unrelated thoughts, doodles, drawings.
84
You want to give your brain some breathing room
85
so it can fly through the white space and make connections it hasn't made before.
86
The second is introspection.
87
This is where the fog refuses to lift.
88
I remember when When I used to feel overwhelmed or defeated or angry or stuck,
89
I would use paper as my friend, my external mind.
90
It's hard to think your way out of any emotional fog.
91
Sometimes though, you can give it a language.
92
Label your feelings.
93
Name them.
94
Accept them.
95
Navigate the inner maze.
96
Let the page carry the burden so you can feel light.
97
Once it's out, you can see it.
98
And once you can see it, you can move.
99
And by the way, sometimes typing feverishly also works for me because it captures the stream of consciousness.
100
But usually I find the slower process of writing on paper produces much deeper catharsis.
101
And the third is intuition.
102
Einstein reportedly said if he had one hour to solve a problem,
103
he would spend 55 minutes defining it and five minutes solving it.
104
That's first principle thinking.
105
Untangling the problem itself.
106
What do I actually know to be true?
107
What am I assuming?
108
How do I formulate this problem?
109
That's where paper comes handy.
110
So invention, introspection, and intuition.
111
Now why do I call them three originals?
112
Because they are the three unique traits that make you and me truly human.
113
No other human or machine can do those three steps exactly the same way that you'll do them.
114
They are like your fingerprints.
115
Now let's talk about staring down the void.
116
Because maybe you're thinking, alright this sounds right,
117
but the moment I face a blank page, I always freeze.
118
Does this happen to you?
119
Researchers from Princeton and UCLA found that students who took notes by hand understood concepts more deeply than those who typed.
120
Now the typists recorded more words but they they ended up understanding less.
121
More speed with less depth.
122
So if the evidence is this clear,
123
why don't we use paper all the time?
124
Because we don't like staring at the blank page.
125
You know the blank page syndrome is exactly what drives all of us to chat GPT.
126
Type something, anything, and within three seconds,
127
you're gonna get three paragraphs.
128
Instant relief, but only to the symptom.
129
The underlying cause never gets addressed.
130
Because if you shy away from the most uncomfortable moment in all of creative and intellectual work,
131
that blank page, then you're shying away from clarity and originality.
132
In psychology, it's called desired difficulty.
133
The harder your brain has to work to generate a thought,
134
the deeper gets wired in.
135
The strong resistance is what gives rise to strong results.
136
But doing it without judgment is hard.
137
Here's what happens to all of us.
138
A friend of mine is one of the best cooks I know.
139
Cooking is her calling.
140
She loses herself in it and every dish is a masterclass.
141
But then there are weeks where she just hates cooking.
142
I asked her about it and she said,
143
that's when my mother-in-law is visiting and she stands right there next to me in the kitchen.
144
So no matter how good you are at what you do,
145
when you have to do it while being judged,
146
there's no chance you're gonna create your masterpiece.
147
So I think the blank page is not our problem.
148
The real problem is our inner judge that's staring at it.
149
And that inner voice is telling you that you have nothing new to say.
150
Well, don't listen to it.
151
When you sit down in front of that blank page,
152
you want to quickly form precise ideas.
153
Those four words are your four judges.
154
Quickly form precise ideas.
155
Let's take each one.
156
First, quickly.
157
Why rush?
158
What's the rush?
159
Your best thinking never arrives on schedule.
160
So give it 15 minutes,
161
maybe 20 minutes, stare at it for a while.
162
The point of the paper is to slow you down.
163
Quickly is overrated.
164
Second, form.
165
Nothing on this page needs to be well-formed.
166
Half a thought, good.
167
Disconnected words, great.
168
An arrow pointing nowhere, even better.
169
All of it counts.
170
No one's gonna see this piece of paper but you.
171
Third, precise.
172
Now this is the biggest trap for a lot of us.
173
Be random, be imprecise, let it flow.
174
Even if you haven't found any words yet, write them anyway.
175
And fourth, ideas.
176
It does not have to be a great idea,
177
or a new idea, or even an idea.
178
It can be a feeling,
179
a question, a word, a phrase, a doodle, a shape.
180
Whatever shows up in your head is yours.
181
So go ahead and fire all those four judges.
182
And remember, you don't need to fill that page.
183
You just have to empty your mind.
184
Do that honestly enough, and that blank page will take care of itself.
185
You know, every idea has a journey,
186
and it needs many vehicles, paper, keyboard, and AI.
187
They're not rivals.
188
They're partners.
189
You just need to build a system to integrate them.
190
The core question behind this system is not about which tool is best.
191
It's what your idea needs next.
192
So there are three ways to think about it.
193
First, if your idea needs freedom, go to paper.
194
When the idea is still fragile,
195
you know, it's a feeling,
196
a fragment, a question that won't leave you alone.
197
Still in its embryonic stage,
198
it needs time and space to be born.
199
That's where paper is perfect.
200
Because on paper, you can let it breathe.
201
Because there's no cursor blinking at you and waiting for you.
202
No auto-complete.
203
No undo.
204
Just you and your freedom.
205
Second, if your idea needs form, go to the keyboard.
206
Because you're at a point now when your idea has a pulse.
207
And it needs structure and some kind of sequence, sentences.
208
but you still want to spend time with it.
209
You want to be alone with it.
210
That's where keyboard is very good.
211
And finally, if the idea needs feedback,
212
then go to AI by all means.
213
It's your collaborator and your co-pilot.
214
You can have a dialogue with it.
215
It can challenge your idea.
216
It can expand it.
217
It can pressure test it.
218
It can recombine it.
219
Find what's missing.
220
This is where deep research is a great tool.
221
Now, this framework is not a sequence.
222
So you can interchange keyboard and AI in any order of your choice.
223
It all depends on what your idea needs next.
224
For example, this video started on this paper,
225
30 minutes away from any screen.
226
Just fragments, arrows, questions I couldn't answer yet.
227
Then I went to the keyboard for structure.
228
Then AI for deep research and refinement.
229
Then back again on paper.
230
when I got stuck, I doodled on paper, went for a walk.
231
So from paper to keyboard to AI to paper,
232
you know, the loop continued.
233
Your system is based on what you need next.
234
Is it freedom?
235
Is it form?
236
Is it feedback?
237
Your vehicle will change on this journey accordingly.
238
But in the end, the journey starts with you and ends with you.
239
And that's the most important takeaway from all of this.
240
AI can amplify your ideas,
241
expand them, polish them, even execute your ideas at a scale you never imagined.
242
But it cannot create them for you.
243
For that, it's you and that piece of paper.
244
Today, AI is already smarter than us in many ways.
245
And intelligence is becoming cheap.
246
It's becoming a commodity.
247
So what makes you irreducibly human?
248
your creation, your emotion, your intuition.
249
You know, the three originals.
250
And paper protects all three of them.
251
Think of a sculptor.
252
They don't begin with polish.
253
First comes the rough shape,
254
you know, the messy first cuts,
255
all that work that nobody sees.
256
And if you polish too early,
257
you will ruin the sculpture.
258
That's why thinking on paper is so crucial.
259
Because, you know, From the beginning of human progress,
260
every giant leap began as a small, innocent, original idea.
261
But each one of them was forged in solitude through messy first cuts.
262
Your ideas are the same.
263
When you shape them in solitude,
264
they shape who you become and they shape the world around you.
265
So make your first cut.
266
Make it yourself on a piece of paper before the world or the machine gets to reshape it for you.
267
Because it's the most human thing you can do.
268

here's the latest one on how you can have many interests and still be amazingly successful.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
