The unknown unknowns!

Recently we had a heated discussion in the office..Unfortunately our side kind of won the argument. :(
Now you will say why am I sad for that? Because later my mentor told me that you are playing with unknown unknowns.. Be very very careful!

WoW!

Unknown-unknowns! (It was almost a mentos moment for me! - दिमाग की बत्ती जल गयी  ! )

Hmm now I am thinking... Unknown unknowns , what a weird concept.. Although it sounds weird , its a very wonderful concept.

Originally this phrase comes from  United States Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld.. He had once said,

"that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things that we know that we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns, the ones we don't know we don't know."

Isn't it worth giving a thought..It just changed a lot of things for me..We know that we are unaware of some things and we assume that we know what we are unaware of!

खरच जर आपण हे मान्य केल कि खरच काही गोष्टी आहेत ज्या आपल्याला माहित सुद्धा नाही कि माहित नाहीयेत तर लोकांकडे , परिस्थितीकडे बघायला किती सोप जाइल ना? उगीचच आपल्या परीने लोकांच्या वागण्याचे बोलण्याचे अर्थ लावण बंद होईल !

Anyways enough philosophy ! But truly it is something to think about..Something to ponder upon and surely something to keep in mind every single day!
