When Experience Becomes a Blind Spot
Oct 23, 2026
One of the privileges of getting older is experience.
One of the dangers?
Thinking experience means we already know.
Experience is an incredible asset—until it prevents you from gaining new experience.
The moment we stop asking questions because “we’ve done this before,” our experience can begin limiting us.
Today, walk into something familiar as a beginner.
Ask:
“What might I see if I weren’t so certain I already understood it?”
Stay experienced.
Stay curious.
Ask one question today you think you already know the answer to.
