Absolutely! It's the things you don't know you don't know that are the real problem!
Jan 20, 2026 16:16It's perhaps worth noting that even when we don't know where we may be wrong, we may still be able to think about how to guess at sources of uncertainty - such as by thinking about
- how we've been biased in the past,
- what mistakes others have made,
- how we have defined key concepts and ...
... how those concepts may be limited or dubious or based on categories which may be no more justifiable than others.
And that there are ways other than thinking which can prompt us to conceptualise differently (intuition, dreams, analogy, fiction) ...
...as well as varieties of ways of thinking with the purpose of finding clues to the unknowns that may be useful (visualising, analysing language and so on).
