. I know my subject, I know how best to share it with people and while I may be a Beginner at keynoting, I am an expert at Gravity. I've been sharing that concept one-on-one for over a year now. I know my content - that's where I'm the expert.
The Bottom Line?
Beginner's Mind is an amazing way to prepare yourself to learn. Being able to let go of any suppositions and simply be a sponge is a gift beyond explanation.
But we must also be selective when it comes to Beginner's Mind. We all have expertise in some areas. And those areas often overlap with areas of Beginner's Mind.
This weekend I learned that even in Beginner's Mind - my Expert's Mind has a role as well. Blending the two, switching fluidly between the diverse perspectives - that's my next lesson for growth.
Do you blend the two? Any tips for how to do it efficiently? Please share!
