DON'T BE A KNOW IT ALL

Good morning everyone!  Happy Tuesday.  I have a survey for you.  The "topper" or the "know it all?"  Which one irritates you more?  That's a hard one right!?  While a "topper" can certainly be annoying the "know it all" is the winner for me.

The "know it all" knows it all.  There is nothing you can teach them and nothing they can learn.  Quite sad actually.  One of the greatest things in life is the ability to acquire new knowledge by being open to learning new things.

Truly sad that not everyone shares that sentiment.  My perception is that a "know it all" is a very insecure person who needs to feel important and the way in which they do this is to fake it and if you fake it with authority, rarely are you questioned.  However, they are still the losers.

Today's quote is, "If you don't know stop pretending you do - trade false boasting for an opportunity to learn and acquire new knowledge."  I don't understand why anyone would pretend to be knowledgeable about something they really have no expertise in yet people do it all the time.

If you partake in that behavior, STOP!  It doesn't make you look smarter.  In fact you miss an opportunity for growth.  One thing I will say for sure.  I will never grow taller but I can grow smarter and so can you!

Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone! ~Love, Amy
