Succeeding Outside Of Academia With The Guerrilla Scholar

In this episode of Control or Be Controlled, we sit down with Sheldon Greaves, guerrilla scholar and founder of a university, to challenge the idea that traditional institutions are the only path to meaningful intellectual growth.We talk about:· Why institutional education isn’t the only route to deep learning· What “guerrilla scholarship” really means in today’s world· How independent thinkers like Buckminster Fuller and Eric Hoffer shaped history outside academia· Building your own learning system based on curiosity and discipline· How to filter disinformation and think critically in an information-heavy world· Creating and leveraging learning communities beyond the classroom· Finding powerful, overlooked resources (including your local library)· Why modern education often neglects personal development· How to take ownership of your intellectual growth without waiting for permissionThis is a bold, thought-provoking conversation about breaking free from conventional systems — and taking full control of how you learn, think, and contribute to the world.CONNECT AND EXPLOREConnect with Sheldon - https://guerrillascholar.substack.com/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4oxm0ryKZ5ttYOjlNQRT1EApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/control-or-be-controlled/id1893693046Podmatch: https://podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/controlorbecontrolled
