Direct and Indirect Choices

The key conclusions in this paper, that social policies are hard and are likely to generate unintended consequences and that voluntary peer selection is an important element of success is consistent with my operating model that there are some things we can control directly in terms of life success and that there are other processes which we can't control but can only place ourselves in a position to take advantage of opportunities that come along.

Peer sorting will happen regardless, best to make sure that one is engaged with good peers.
