Andy Egwim explains the Dunning-Kruger effect: the less you know, the more you think you know. He uses a junior doctor's exam revision story to show how you underestimate what you need to learn until you actually start.
And so what happened along those years of compounding experience of listening to other people that are doing amazing things? It opened my mind further. And we all suffer with the Dunning Kruger effect, every single one of us. And for those that don't know what the Dunning Kruger effect is, it basically, it's the less you know, the more you think you know. Yeah. And the way I spoke to a lot of junior doctors last night, and the way I explained it to them was when you're revising for an exam and you think, I'll do this in a week, and then you start revising and you suddenly realize there is so much more that you need to learn to pass this exam. But before you started. Theory of My Life. Yeah. Before you started, you didn't realize that. And that's the Dunning Kruger effect.
