Your unique perspective is what sets you apart. And yet it’s often the first thing you edit out to fit in.

Using it can feel risky. You might crash and burn. You might say the thing that doesn’t land or challenges the usual story in the room. That’s the moment people often decide it would be safer to stay quiet next time.

But every failure carries information. Every misstep teaches you something about timing, framing, courage, or yourself. And every lesson has the power to move you forward, but only if you don’t let embarrassment shut you down.

This matters for Weird Wisdom(R) at Work because Diversity of Thought doesn’t come from playing it safe. It comes from people willing to bring their full perspective, even when it’s imperfect, unfinished, or inconvenient.

If you never risk being wrong, you also never give your insight the chance to change anything.
