I don’t know

3 words no professional would ever want to use, yet bumping into areas where you are completely clueless is actually a sign of progress.

If you start projects often and at the very beginning, you had everything mapped out in high detail, you had every answer, every structure, everything mapped out, then you must be on the wrong path. You are obviously playing around in familiar territory and this is not good for long term growth.

I don’t know… but I will work it out!

Admitting “I don’t know” is not aways a weakness. In fact, the brightest minds often admit they don’t know and are willing to ask questions and research until they now know and then move on to master the unknown. It is not necessarily a bad sign if you are honest enough to say “I don’t know where my business will be in 5 years time”.

I don’t know, I do not have all the answers right now, but I am very sure that once I learn enough to get me started, I can launch out and keep going, I will get feedback, learn some more and keep moving.

You do not need to have all the answers on day one and it does not necessarily make you a bad business man.
