'I don't know' should be the three most common words in the English language. The problem is most people sell certainty. The world is complicated, ambiguous, and uncertain. No one knows. But we fly towards the light like Mosquitoes. Knowing is less powerful than resilience, endurance, and the ability to respond to whatever life throws at you constructively. We are powerful storytellers. We can connect the dots in a way that makes us think we understand the cause and effect of everything. It makes us feel powerful. Where we don't understand, we fly towards wherever the light radiates strongest. Not knowing is fine. Nothing is a bigger danger than someone who always gets it right, and always has the answer.
