In 2024, the speaker started a new job in January, which provided a unique work experience and introduced them to interesting colleagues. However, they resigned after about seven months to focus on their podcast and PhD studies. They also met many podcasters in person, which was a significant and positive change for them.
The concept of 'knowledge gaps' refers to the idea that the less we know, the less we realize how little we know. As we learn more details, we become aware of the gaps in our knowledge. Filling these gaps increases our understanding and resolution of the world, making us see things more clearly.
In 2024, the speaker began reading more regularly and systematically, driven by positive feedback from their podcast audience. This shift led to a deeper understanding of the books they read and allowed them to connect various themes and ideas across different works.
In 2025, the speaker plans to start a new interview project focusing on conversations with 00s and 05s generation individuals. They aim to understand the diverse experiences and thoughts of younger people, which may not necessarily be released as podcast episodes.
The speaker realized that they were not truly passionate or skilled in their previous roles as a data scientist or in marketing. They found more fulfillment in podcasting and academic pursuits, which align better with their interests and strengths.
The 'quick and dirty' approach emphasizes starting with a rough version of a project rather than striving for perfection from the beginning. This method allows for faster progress and iterative improvements, which the speaker found valuable in their podcasting journey.
The speaker learned the importance of cherishing the present moment and spending quality time with loved ones, as they realized that there is no guarantee of 'someday' or 'later.' This experience prompted them to prioritize meaningful interactions and experiences.
In 2025, the speaker plans to explore their long-standing interest in dinosaurs by visiting dinosaur fossil museums, particularly the one in Zigong, Sichuan. They aim to reconnect with this childhood passion and spend time in a smaller city to experience a different lifestyle.
