The Expanding Map of Knowledge and Ignorance

The Expanding Map of Knowledge and Ignorance

You are a student of life for life. Your knowledge is expanding, but so is your ignorance, for as you continue to learn, there will always be so much more for you to further explore. 

Why you should create your own map:

  • It helps you identify your knowledge gaps in the areas that actually matter to you
  • It highlights your strengths. The closer you are to mastery, the more strengths you have in the specific area of discussion.
  • It gives you a holistic view of where you stand today so you can phase out the steps for what’s ahead.

The Dunning-Kruger Effect

It’s a type of cognitive bias whereby people who are incompetent at something are unable to recognize their own incompetence in it.

This is why a person, despite his lack of knowledge or experience in a specific domain, can still think he’s amazing at it.

"The scientific revolution has not been a revolution of knowledge. It has been above all a revolution of ignorance. The greatest discovery that launched the scientific revolution was the discovery that humans do not know the answers to their most important questions."

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.
