A simple idea can change everything.
I was reading “Being Wrong” yesterday and picked up where I’d left off a few weeks back when I first met author Kathryn Shultz through a TED talk.
The story at the start of this video is a perfect example of an idea that can change your life. While I’ve intellectually agreed with all Kathryn talks about, the story of the Chinese symbol was enough to get me to order the book imedately. Reading through, I’ve learned much about how we feel about being wrong and new ways to help myself and others turning mistakes into data points we can learn by.
I may still run off the cliff from time to time, but I’m not afraid to look down as much now.
This was great Warren, thank you for sharing “I thought and something else happened instead” Fabulous…. “Tiny Terrified Space of Rightness” Wow
