In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl shares an essay on finding clarity in decision-making and risk. Inspired by a personal shift in his backcountry skiing approach after a tragic accident, he explores the powerful concept of focusing on terrain that's always safe rather than testing boundaries. This episode delves into three key themes: rethinking risk, clarifying motivations, and the creative process of distilling insights into a single, impactful idea—like finding one grain of sand on a vast beach. Join Carl as he reflects on applying this "Dr. Low Angle" philosophy both in skiing and in life.
