âWall Street is the only place that people ride to in a Rolls Royce, to get advice from those who take the subwayâ - Warren Buffett If this sentence does not make you think for a while, read it twice. Or three, four, five times until your head blows up. This sentence contains the essential difference between an advisor and a mentor. The first talks to you from almost the academia.

But they didnât. Thatâs the main flaw of the education system these days. They teach you to be good employees, but not to thrive and grow personally.

Complexity is the enemy of clarity. And without clarity, you're invisible. Iâve been in meetings where technical guys discuss and discuss. Argue and argue. About the gender of the angels. For hours. For meetings. For months. Ego against ego. And you still miss the point. The clarity, the specificity of the problem. And they go invisible. For bosses and leaders alike.
