Von Oech on Relearning

Roger von Oech has written a brief but profound post that should be read by every college graduate. An excerpt:

I remember many years ago when I was in graduate school, a friend told me: "After you get out, it will take you several years before you're able to think clearly again." I smiled.

But it turned out that he was right. Many of the assumptions I picked up at Stanford had to be re-thought once I was out in the business world and then later on my own.
