I think it's difficult, but mentorship comes to mind. For me, a really good tutor when I was at university helped me see the flaws in my mental models.
A person is likely to be far more interactive than a book. ;)
Our society is so fractured and individualized. We think we have to offer money for everything. We used to have academic societies, social clubs, and many more communal spaces that are all a shell of their former self or just filled with the older generation that valued things like that. Our generations mantra is "I hate people". We live in large congested cities and don't truly know our neighbors. Problem stems from here. You are only a "nobody" (you're not btw, that's a lie) because you haven't bothered to become a somebody to someone.
Difficult problem to solve, for sure.
It mentions cities being hubs of creativity.
