My problem with the word “sazen” is that I always need to google WTF it means. It somehow refuses to stick in my mind.
Now that I looked it up, it does not seem like the same idea. Duncan wrote about how you hear the advice but fail to apply it, because the advice is insufficiently clear/actionable. It’s like someone giving you a hashcode of the useful advice. The mistake is on the side of the one who gives the advice.
This article is about refusing to consider good advice for status reasons (because it is an advice for children or beginners, and I am not one of them). The mistake is on your side… and you can stop making it!
