The Downside to Inaction

from Developer Tea Hosted by Jonathan Cutrell

We underestimate the knowledge we have. (Interestingly, we also *over*-estimate the knowledge we have, just a different type of knowledge.) We also underestimate the knowledge we don't have. We overestimate the downside to failure, and we underestimate the downside to inaction. We are afraid of failure, but perhaps we should be more afraid of inaction. ✨ Sponsor: ListenNotes.com With over 91 million episodes, Listen Notes is my new favorite way to find podcasts.
