Future Here Now: It's time to be wrong
Share

Hey all. Before I get into today’s post, I’m posting new video, photo and written content on Instagram at wise.economy.workshop. If you’re already following me on Instagram, you’ve been on my personal account and this one will be much more interesting for you. I hope you’ll join me over there!


I’m giving my award for best headline to this post from The Conversation: “The Curious Joy of Being Wrong.”

If you know me, you know I am smart. Sometimes too smart. Certainly smart enough that, given the wrong back-patting and praise, I could have turned out to be a real pain in the ass. I joke that I have an ego the size of a small country, I’ve just been socialized to keep it under control.

And a lot of that stems from the fact that I’ve worked in a lot of places and times where I have been wrong.

Totally wrong. Sometimes mind-blowingly wrong.
