Description

Prodigy vs talent vs hard work. Is a prodigy born or made? How important is talent compare to hard work? What is the role of the educator nowadays compare pre-Google days? In this episode, I am honored to have Judit Polgár, Chess Grandmaster, on to talk about her origin story, her take on the education system nowadays, how can chess be translated into education, how can an adult learn a new skill at a high level. Towards the end of the episode, Jay The Engineer and I also talked about what we learned from the episode, and also discuss the techniques to learn a new skill as an adult. I write about all my podcasts! Thanks so much for listening!
