I Committed a Crime, and It Improved My Writing by 200%
You’ve got to keep doing this.
One day, I went to a party and bought a pizza.
Sure, I didn’t want to be that person who only brings Pepperoni.
That’s boring.
So, I brought a Hawaiian with pineapple on it.
The result?
Hawaiian was on fire.
Pepperoni?
Leftovers.
I used to believe people hated pineapple on pizza.
But I’m glad I challenged that belief and did a social experiment.
It’s easy to claim you know everything.
Sure, it sounds smart, but it makes you a fool.
It’s hard to say, “I don’t know,” because it makes you look like a fool.
But admitting you don’t know is the path to wisdom.
When you admit it, you start asking the right questions and experimenting, which leads to true wisdom.
I used to believe most people had watched Star Wars.
I mean, it’s in the top 5 lifetime grossing films, right?
