Everyone, including you (and me ofc), is dumb AF but in different ways.
“If you’re the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room.”
Be curious, not comfortable. Never stop learning from those who are smarter than you.

Yes. I’ve been the “smartest” person in the room once or twice, during a crisis. It sucks!
Edit: And by “smartest” I just mean “only one in that room remotely qualified to plan our response to the current crisis.”
I don’t actually believe “smartest” exists.
There’s just who has the experience most needed in the current moment.
We tend to call that person “smart”.
Of course. You wouldn’t judge an elephant by its ability to climb trees, etc etc
Why would someone “less smart” not deserve success?
depends
