Fragility & Thinking Ahead

by Rick Baker
On Feb 21, 2014

Sometimes our senses utterly fail us when bad news arrives at our doorstep, disrupting our busy lives. And, so, blind and deaf and otherwise oblivious, our feet and brains plod on in their deep ruts.

Seeing others scurrying around, frazzled and strained, we wonder, perhaps even with a bit of amusement but with little depth or duration, about their puzzling predicaments.

Then, without the least bit of forewarning, so much to our exclamation, the boom lowers harshly on us, turning everything upside down.

Thought Tweet #940

Thought Tweet #940 Don't underestimate what other people don't know.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Everyone knows a lot of stuff.

But...or...Then...there's an immeasurable amount of stuff that can be known.

Everyone has filled their brains with lots of stuff from an unlimited pool of information. Some of the head-fill is planned and intentional; much of the head-fill happens without conscious effort. And again, the pool of head-fill information is enormous in size...immeasurable.

So, while everyone has much in their heads the overlap between yours and theirs may be much smaller than you think.

Don't underestimate what other people don't know.
