Hold Your Beliefs Lightly

No. 143

In my recent emails and messages, I noticed myself starting sentences with

'I know that...'

I went back and changed these to

'I believe that...'

What I call knowledge is often my perspective based on today's information, my biases, and my blind spots. The older I get, the more I realize how little I know.

This week, watch your writing and speaking. Notice when you express absolute certainty. It's okay to have strong beliefs but hold them lightly.

Be good and take care, Kelly
