I’m not sure if this is a topic we should be talking about in this particular article, but this particular point is worth noting. Ignorance is something that can be extremely damaging to you and your life. Ignorance can take you out of your comfort zone and leave you with a void that is difficult to fill. I have seen a lot of people who are good at what they do get swept up in the rush and excitement of a new project and lose their focus.
Although I believe there’s a difference in the two, I do believe that there’s a difference between knowing you don’t know something and being arrogant. You can be sure there’s a lot of people who just know what they know without even bothering to think about it. It’s not that you can’t change your mind and think about a different point of view, but you can still be arrogant about it.
With the exception of those who aren’t smart enough to do their own thing, most of the time its just you and me. But it works all the time.
It is true that there are a number of people who are not smart enough to do their own thing. There are a number of people who cant think for themselves, and are stuck in the mindless repetition of the same old routine. This can be seen in many areas of our lives, from our health habits to our way of living and even our sex life. We can all learn to improve in these areas. The thing is, most of the time its not you and me.
For example, a habit that I have been guilty of for a long time is the habit of thinking that people who are smarter and more experienced are always right. In reality it is pretty much a myth that most people are smarter and more experienced than we are. As a result, we can’t count on our own intelligence and experience to guide us around important decisions.
This misconception is caused because people think that everyone else has the same level of knowledge as them. That there is no knowledge gap between the smartest and the dumbest. There is a gap, but it’s not as big as people imagine. We still have an information advantage because we are able to gather more information from other sources than they do by simply reading news articles.
In some ways, this is an example of the “ignorance vs pride” effect. When I was growing up, my friends’ dads would tease me for being the smartest kid in the class because I knew more than they did. But I knew exactly what they were talking about and they were completely unaware. So it’s not really an example of “ignorance” per se.
The reason I know that is because I am more aware of this effect than my friends. I am very aware of it because I know exactly what I am talking about. That’s not an example of arrogance, it’s a result of the ignorance vs pride effect of my friends. They are still unaware of what I am talking about because they haven’t really been exposed to the idea that there is a lot more to the world than what they are seeing on the news.
As an example of something that can be seen as ignorance, the news is full of stories about the rise of extreme anti-vaccination groups and the general ignorance that surrounds them. There are so many articles about the ignorance of anti-vaxxers that it makes me wonder if people are even aware of the existence of this effect.
