Summary
"I realized I learn differently." Dale Stephens has already had an incredible journey in his 20s, dropping out of elementary school (it's a great story), dropping out of college, becoming a Thiel Fellowship winner, launching a company, raising millions in venture capital and writing a book along the way. You may look at that and think: "He's unique" or "That's not something I could do." But the interesting thing about Dale is his belief that all of us learn differently, and we just need to find the *best* way for each of us whether that's how we learn in traditional colleges or universities, how to learn on our own through new methods or how we dive into experiences that'll open our eyes in new and surprising ways. Creation events are just another way to learn -- and in our conversation we talk about the power of 'meaty' and 'meaningful' experiences like books, podcasts, events, and others to really force us to learn and level up.
