I have just come across this site and have found it interesting and informative. Look forward to looking through the site some more.

I have to agree with Mark McGuinness he is so right here I too heard that Arsene Wenger sat at home watching football matches but there are a few coaches that in fact to just this.

Chesterton’s Paradox: “if you don’t accept the orthodoxies for the majority of your life you’ll never have time or energy to develop your own heterodoxy in the thing that interests you” (paraphrased of course !)

Good question, Natanya. I think the answer for most people is “one.” I don’t know how you could do Darwin / Einstein / Beethoven-level work in two areas at once. Eh?

Thanks for sharing this paradigm. Makes me think about how many passions you can really be an otaku for before you’re not really able to be one for any of them. Possibly it helps focus on what’s really important.

Thanks Tim. I like your football coach example — reminds me of Arsene Wenger (Arsenal football coach), apparently all he does at home is watch DVDs of football matches …
