I started asking one dumb question a day and it actually helped

I made myself post a simple thing I didn't understand in this community every morning. Like why clouds look fluffy or how batteries work. After doing this for three weeks, I got clear explanations from all sorts of people. Now I feel less shy about not knowing stuff and way more interested in learning.

That part about feeling less shy about not knowing stuff really hits home. I used to hate looking dumb, but your post makes me totally get it now.

Yeah, seeing how much time people waste pretending they know.

Notice how many people fake confidence instead of just asking. @troy996 nailed it, that fear of looking dumb holds everyone back. Admitting what you don't know is the real power move.
