Interesting perspective on what is true and what isn’t. I tend to agree that what other people share isn’t necessarily the truth. It’s simply their perspective.

Beliefs are perspectives. Explanations are confabulated. Obligations are wishes. Rules are arbitrary. They’re useful, but not necessarily true.

“Useful Not True” is the latest Derek Sivers’ book. However, it’s not the most interesting one, I’m told. Apparently, “Hell Yeah Or No” is much better. I think I’m ordering both.
