Knowing whether you actually know something or not is very important. Too often humans mistake a definite statement of their opinions for truth. This causes a lot of hurt, and can have serious ramifications.
It’s important to have the confidence not to know something. It’s also important to be able to separate your reaction to something from the truth.
Always ask yourself “Would I stake my life on this?” If yes, take a little time to be 100% certain. Often if something upsets us we jump in with both feet fuelled by anger and passion. Those are the times to remain cool and examine the evidence.
Otherwise lives and careers can b”e destroyed and it’s no good going “oops my bad!” afterwards.
The four levels of competence
Unconscious incompetence – I don’t know that I don’t know
Conscious incompetence – I do know that I don’t know everything
Unconscious competence – I don’t realise how much I know
Conscious competence – I’m certain of what I know
A handy test that will give you time to cool down and be certain.
I'm a writer, public speaker, medium, and spiritual thinker. I suffered from acute anxiety from the age of 16 until I was well into my 50s, when I finally found methods that helped me to put it behind me. My struggles led to me exploring life through poetry, then plays, and over a 15 year period I made notes for a self help book which I published in 2015. Details on the book page. Although I am a psychic medium and loved the work, it didn’t feel right for me. It was an utter privilege, but my path was the exploration of what it means to be spirit in the real world and how we can make practical use of those abilities. Nowadays I write, blog, and teach soul-centred living, which is a gentle way of undoing past programming and connecting to your essential self, or soul. If you’re interested email me and we can chat. No pressure, it’s right for you or it’s not and you will know. The groups meet on line so no going out on cold, wet, winter’s evenings. On a personal note, I’m based in the UK. Married with five cats, no children, and four grandchildren, thanks to our inherited daughter, who has gifted us four beautiful little people that bring us such joy. Hope you enjoy the blogs. Deb xx
