My Learnings: #58

Get comfortable saying "I don't know"—the world is too complex to know everything. If you're respected, it's vital: people treat your words as facts for decisions, so only speak authoritatively on what you truly know. Speculate if needed, but clarify it's unvetted opinion to preserve trust in your real facts. This builds credibility at senior levels and in daily life. Avoid faking expertise to seem smart or win arguments; pursue truth for easier real-world navigation and genuine respect.
