What’s Wrong With Admitting?

“What’s wrong with admitting that we don’t know something? Is our self-esteem so fragile?” -Carl Sagan

What’s Wrong With Admitting?

At a conference this week so not knowing and knowing information has a certain academic view this week.

But I do feel this urge to know more in other areas. Know a person so intimately inside and out. Have the idea of them.

And I can say I want that feeling of being an extension of him. Is that healthy, I don’t know but it doesn’t make me crave it any less.

I am sitting now listening to a keynote talking about relationships. She means a different kind but her point about having someone ask you the right questions and having your back is something I feel a lot stronger about in the high stakes relationships of my life and not at work.

Many of these events I attend have those same themes the past few years:

Trust, curiosity, growth, momentum, intentionality

Maybe someone is trying to tell me something.
