Wannabe Sheldon vs The Eternal Students

There are mainly two kinds of people

The Wannabe Sheldon:

These are people who are aware of what all they know about (life, career, any particular domain, etc), but completely unaware of what they don’t know.


They don’t know how much information is out there , and are happy with their current knowledge. This is a very dangerous mindset as not only it hampers growth , but also brings bonus ego. These people stay in a bubble , and believe they are the experts when they are actually very far from it.


The Eternal Students:

These are people who are not only aware of what all they know, but also aware of what all they don’t know (a crucial distinction).


They understand that one can never truly master a subject, and always act like they are a student of that subject. This mindset allows them to grow, and is eventually what makes them expert of that field.
