Developing Intellectual Honesty

Building a house is a very personal endeavor!  No one else can tell you the style, features, or size that is best for you!  Maybe you want a bowling alley where you can host your neighbors!  Maybe you want an indoor theater!  Maybe all you want is 300 sq ft of highly functional space!  What is right for you is right for you!  (Sounds kind of redundant, but we think it is true)

Building a personal framework for how you view and utilize intellectual honesty is no different.  Maybe you are ready to be 105% honest with yourself, maybe your are only ready to be 104% honest with yourself… or maybe you are comfortable with some other degree of truth, when it comes to how you choose to view the world!

The point is, that we recognize how personal this journey is for you.  We will not interfere in this process.  It is not our job to attempt to persuade you towards one extreme or the other.  Instead, we are only here to provide you with things to consider as you make up your own mind.

Making Up Your Own Mind Requires Openness To New Perspectives

While we will never attempt to persuade you, we will present you with thoughtful examples, perspectives, and ideas.  If you like something that we present, then you can add it to your framework.  If you don’t, then that is okay too!  We will get over it, eventually!!  We don’t hold grudges!

The point is that we each have very distinct roles in this journey.  Our job is to present ideas to you.  Your job is to thoughtfully consider them, then accept or reject them as you feel is best.

Think of us as being the architect who you hired to present you with blueprints.  If you don’t like our fancy bowling alley, then you can choose not to add it to your house!
