Don’t be certain – having an opinion is an act of courage.
Certainty is a mental construct that makes me feel safe.
It’s efficient, not effective.
It comes at the cost of the delusion of control.
Opinions are why we believe something to be true
based on our preferences.
Believing we don’t have an opinion
is unwilling to perceive the truth as we believe it to be.
It comes at the cost of imagination.
When I say, “this is how I see it,”
I own what I see without demanding agreement.
Having an opinion is stepping into possibility
and away from what feels safe.
It’s an act of courage.
In a world of infinite too much toomuchness,
Don’t be certain is the line between
delusion and imagination.
What opinion are you withholding
in the name of certainty?
