102. How To Spot Your Blind Spots
Manage episode 419426768 series 3001697
Have you ever CRAVED wisdom?
I remember when I was a little girl, and I wanted to know EVERYTHING.
I'm sure my questions drove my family nuts.
(I KNOW they drove my teachers nuts - they told me so!)
But it just seemed to me, if you knew more, you'd make better decisions.
And better decisions would lead to a better life.
Anyway, that's what I thought when I was about age 8.
Now, at 47? I am CONVINCED of it.
So, I thought I would share with you the stages we pass through to go from IGNORANCE (everyone's starting spot) to WISDOM - and how that can help us become SELF AWARE of our own blind spots! I think that's pretty cool - but remember, I was the nerdy kid at school asking ALL the questions!
Here's the thing to remember, especially if you are like me, with an insatiable desire for growth -
NOT EVERONE is like you.
And that's okay.
That does not make them wrong, or you WEIRD.
It makes you WISE.
There's a saying, Ignorance is bliss.
The more you learn, the more you desire to learn.
If I had to choose between wisdom or bliss -
I'd choose wisdom. I'd envy the blissful person next to me, lol!
But I would STILL choose wisdom.
What would you choose?
So, that's my warning before you listen to this episode!
