Daniel Fazio asserts that algebra is simple—only a few rules repeated consistently—and compares this simplicity to business skills, arguing that perceived complexity arises until one attains minimum viable competence across core capabilities.
I don't understand how anybody on the planet could fail an algebra class. There's like, five rules, and it's the same rules every single time. It's the same thing every time. Now, it's the same thing with business because it seems very complicated until you have a vast array of capabilities and you acquire minimum viable competence and all these skills, and it's, oh, this is the same thing every single time.
