Thought Tweet #940 Don't underestimate what other people don't know.
The Thinking Behind The Tweet
Everyone knows a lot of stuff.
But...or...Then...there's an immeasurable amount of stuff that can be known.
Everyone has filled their brains with lots of stuff from an unlimited pool of information. Some of the head-fill is planned and intentional; much of the head-fill happens without conscious effort. And again, the pool of head-fill information is enormous in size...immeasurable.
So, while everyone has much in their heads the overlap between yours and theirs may be much smaller than you think.
Don't underestimate what other people don't know.
