Here’s some key takeaways from this episode: 

Develop rare and valuable skills  

“Find something that you are willing to get good at.  Then get good at it.

Not what you like.

Not what you’re being told to do.

Not what the careers advisor is saying. “

Make it convenient

“I’ve come to learn that there are circumstances where a skill is doing things that others are unwilling or unable to do..”

Make a contribution that extends beyond your local environment  

“The defining characteristic of a PhD is that you have to make a contribution to human knowledge. You create something novel that didn’t exist before.”
