Phil introduces the concept of Idea Excavation, which can be shortly summarized as “take what’s valuable, leave what’s not”. Through Steve’s clarification, they also talk about “Learning from the Negative”, examining the traits something or someone lacks, and learning to better foster that missing trait in one’s self, such as patience, gratitude, compassion.
