The doorstep to the temple of wisdom is a knowledge of our own ignorance.

Knowing what you do not know is not a setback on the way to understanding; it is the first real step. Confidence built on unexamined assumptions has nowhere left to grow, because it has already decided. The moment you can name a gap, you can start filling it. Most of what keeps people stuck is not error but the certainty covering it.

Pick one subject you speak about with ease this week and ask where your knowledge actually ends. Say plainly that you are not sure when you are not sure. Notice how much more people tell you afterward.
