What if I don’t have the answers?
I was just thinking about this today.
I don’t know about other writers, but for me when I write here, I often have this voice in my head saying: “You need to add value”. This can very easily become: “You need to have good answers”.
But the truth is that there’s so many things I don’t know. (Even about the things I have an interest in or have prior knowledge of.) And I think it’s okay to not know…to have the humility to accept the limits of my knowledge.
Maybe instead of having nicely packaged answers, it is worth talking about things I’m grappling with. I think that will be a messier but perhaps more intellectually honest approach.
I don’t know…worth a shot?
