In the book

To question your own beliefs and actions is often the very best way to learn, and acquiring real knowledge is not passive: it takes deliberate, sustained effort. Treat every mistake as a lesson rather than a failure — the only real mistake is the one from which you learn nothing — and learn to interrogate information instead of simply swallowing it, thinking like a fact-checker who refuses to treat popularity as proof. And learn the way children do, by doing. — Expanding Your Range (Growth/Change/Education/Learning/Habit)
