October 7 - I don't know

October 7

You will not always be the man (or woman) or the one with answers. It’s perfectly okay to say, “I don’t know,” when asked a question. You don’t need to always have an answer. No, really. Here’s another scenario where you can recall the loving words of my new sponsor, “Shut the fuck up!” You may want to have the answer. You may want to be seen as the man with the answer, but that doesn’t mean you actually have an answer. Sure, it can feel terrifying to not have an answer, especially when you desperately want to impress someone. Sure, they will move on and ask someone else. Better to say nothing than lie or to flap your jaw and look like a fool. Put down the front. Surrender your ego a little and give up the bullshit.

Reflections

Are the above statements true for you? If so, what do you think you should consider today?

Daily Challenge

Have you lied recently to someone? How about considering an apology to that person?
