High agency people --> individuals take full ownership and initiative to solve problems and create opportunities, rather than waiting for permission or direction
People with high agency:
- Identify and solve problems without being asked
- Take responsibility for outcomes rather than making excuses
- Believe they can influence their circumstances rather than just being subject to them

gotta drill this into my head
you find out by doing, not thinking
and
experience is the greatest mentor
if you're lost in a forest, you have to walk

“life is a play and you are the director. you can noscript your life.”

1. Asymmetry is subjective and personal - what represents +ev to one person may be a terrible gamble to another --> this is why there is a market and explains why successful investing often means taking contrarian positions.
2. Expected value (probability × magnitude) is crucial in asymmetric decisions - for example, venture investors know that if 90% of startups fail, the 10% that succeed must deliver returns of 1,900%+ to make the portfolio profitable.
3. The concept applies beyond investing to all life decisions - from simple examples like spending seconds locking doors to prevent break-ins, to career choices where "table selection" (choosing the right opportunity space) can create outsized returns by going against conventional wisdom.

Notes on asymmetry. Trying a new format

have been preaching asymmetry in life to friends all around
"asymmetry is what upside and downside you personally underwrite" is a good way to put it
regardless, when asymmetric opportunities come in life whether career, life, love, or finances, you MUST seize it
