Typical
Prompt 07.20
In what quiet corners of your thinking do you assume you’re the exception: smarter, more rational, less biased than the people around you?
It’s one of the great ironies of being human: nearly all of us believe we’re not like everyone else… just like everyone else.
Real self-awareness begins when you start to question that assumption. When you recognize that your perspective—like everyone’s—is shaped by blind spots, emotions, and unseen influences.
Acknowledging this doesn’t make you weaker. It makes you wiser.
You’re probably more typical than you think. And that’s not a flaw. It’s the foundation for real growth.
