The less you know

We are constantly taught that knowledge is everything, and to a certain degree its true.

There are times, however, when we are better off knowing less. This is mostly the case when our knowledge is the "judgement" or the "instinct" of others on a particular subject.

What this does is cloud our own instincts with those of the others.

Knowing less, and instinctively "feeling" more is more powerful, than knowing only.
