No Omniscience

Fear is the only factor which puts me down. I’ve noticed that in several places. Most of the time, when I am out in public, I try to be omniscient (yes, I openly agree) and the best part is the realisation happened just today and I am super proud of it. This state of being holded me from learning a lot of new things. Learning from missteps is one way of seeking knowledge. Another way is being a passive consumer of the new knowledge (i would call it perspective). 

Listening with all open ears without any bias is also one thing which a researcher should ideally do. I have the habit of iterating what’s right in my head while listening to the users, which earlier made me come out with a biased opinion (most of the time I think that they’re wrong and try to prove that I’m right). Muscling and reflecting these thoughts are very important in order to come out of the biased loop. Art of letting them be is a new realisation which I’ve made. In terms of design thinking, it gives the right problem statement steering towards most appropriate solutions for your users. In terms of life design, it sets your emotions free and allows you to understand other people’s true colors and significance. Nothing is ideal, but I found this to be an interesting realisation to keep myself out of fear. Set the bird in you fly with open ears!
