True Take: Do We Need Experts?
Manage episode 182416529 series 1300061
We look to people with special knowledge to help us solve problems, or give us insight, that we can't necessarily do on our own. But how often do we overlook our own abilities in comparison to these experts? When others have a credible skill set, it doesn't mean that what we have to offer is somehow "less". There is a tendency to shrink from putting ourselves out there in fear that we won't be as credible as others we see as subject matter experts. However, expertise, in many cases is subjective. And we have to be the judge as to take in from others what is right for us. The best experts still have to know how to communicate and connect with others to help them with their knowledge. Otherwise, it's only knowledge and nothing more. Even a small child can give us the bit of awareness that can help us learn something valuable. When we recognize that true "expertise", in this weird experience we call life, is very much an illusion it allows us to give what we have. We don't know who we can help and how we can help them if we don't express what we have. Don't let others supposed superior knowledge keep you from putting yourself out there.
