The less you know, the more you grow?

Just as the further you go out of your comfort zone, the more you grow, the more different your interlocutor is from you, the more you grow.

When you learn more about people who aren’t like you by interacting with them, you see more of the human experience, and that provides valuable lessons for you.

Even when you get to know that someone more and they become less of a stranger, they still hold valuable lessons for you. It’s not a diminishing return.

So, along with experiences that take you out of your comfort zone, go out of your way to talk to people different from you. I guarantee you will grow.

I want to say the less you know about someone, the more you grow, but I don’t think it’s true.

ENJOYED THIS? HAVE MORE.
