What Shane Parrish actually said

  1. Shane Parrish Founder of Farnam Street (fs.blog) and host of The Knowledge Project podcast
    Within your circle of competence, you operate with an advantage. As you approach the perimeter (the limitations of your knowledge), your advantage starts to reduce. As you cross the perimeter, not only does your advantage vanish, but it transfers to other people.
