It is okay not to
know!
I do not mean
embracing ignorance. I do not subscribe to shutting yourself up and allowing
knowledge that would change the course of your life pass you by.
What I do mean is that
it is fine, and perfectly acceptable not to know everything there is to know
about your destination or the means to get there.
Too many times, the
perceived partial nature of one’s knowledge can become a blocker to the pursuit
of a dream.
Every successful
person will tell you they did not know it all when they started out. Their
contemporaries who wanted to know everything first, ended up suffering analysis
paralysis, or some other psychologically debilitating condition that stopped
them from becoming.
It is okay not to
know!
As a matter of fact,
there is a certain beauty to it. It bestows a confident lack of inhibition that
allows you to dare what you dreamed.
Not knowing, or not
being sure should NEVER be an obstacle. Let it birth in you a hunger to know.
And the product of that pursuit of knowledge plus corresponding action will stand
you out.
So, rather than allow
what you do not know to hold you back, that realization should propel you to
learn speedily, on the job. Not before taking on the task, but, on the job.
Understand that, there
are things you can only learn in the place of working the dream.
It is okay not to
know! But, that should always, always, be a springboard to knowing and acting.
Welcome to your
future!
