If someone can’t climb out of the details, and see the bigger picture from multiple angles, they’re often wrong most of the time.

This works both ways. If someone can't get more than one level below the surface and understand the details that form the whole, they’re also often wrong much of the time. Just ask any boss I've ever had.

Good advice but I'm curious about: "Jason Fried is the fastest white man you'll ever meet." Is Jason actually really fast and/or was he an athlete at a prior time?

That stood out to me too... is there an inside joke? What's the white have to do with it?
