“True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us.” -Socrates
Perhaps the reason you’re unwilling to step forward and take a stand or make your art, isn’t because you lack courage. Perhaps it’s because you lack wisdom. True wisdom. The kind that comes from experience and reflection and can withstand intense scrutiny.
But here’s the thing–as Socrates brilliantly once said–the more you know, the more you know that you don’t know.
If that’s the case, then you might as well step forward and do it anyway, right?
Because the only way you’ll ever gain any wisdom and subsequently any courage, is to just do it.
And then do it again.
And then do it again.
Each time proceeding with openness and a beginner’s mind. Secure in the true wisdom that you don’t know.
