Kinds of People Exist in the World
Many statements, movie dialogues, and analogies begin with the saying or phrase — “There are two kinds of people in the world…” How true is this? As I was growing up (read — while I was a kid in high school), I always thought there are two kinds of people in this world, or there are two shades to a problem statement, white and black. As I entered college, I realized that between white and black, there is an entire spectrum of gray.
Coming back to my original question —
How many kinds of people exist in this world? I would like to approach this question based on how people contribute to a conversation, while they’re in a group. The consultant in me wants to break this down into a 2 x 2 matrix, with x axis being contribution to a conversation, and the y axis being knowledge about the topic — 1) Those who know about a topic and contribute 2) those who know about a topic, but don’t contribute 3) those who don’t know about a topic, but contribute; and 4) those who don’t know about a topic, and don’t contribute. I am someone, who keeps jumping between all these boxes, depending on how my mood is that day. I am majorly in the 4th bucket. But I feel, that the most useful bucket is the 3rd bucket — learnings in this bucket are immense.
Why am I writing on this topic today?
While we were sitting, having a family discussion on elections, I was my usual self of staying silent; and my partner asked my parents — “How are you so well read on these matters? Which websites do you follow, and more importantly, where do you make time to read up on these topics?”
This got me thinking about a) the topic of this blog, b) about where I fall in the matrix and c) which box of the matrix is most useful to the development of an individual and character
The answer to c) is very simple.
In my opinion, it’s always useful to contribute, if you know or you don’t know. Even in college, when companies hire for employees, they have a round of GDs, or group discussions. And staying silent doesn’t help! When you contribute to a discussion, you get to learn a lot more about the topic, than when you don’t contribute, and only listen. If you’re only listening, you tend to zone out from the conversation! However, there is a very thin line between not knowing, and contributing fruitfully, and not knowing and contributing in a stupid manner — in classic lingo from B School, arbit CP. Arbit stands for arbitrary, and CP stands for Class Participation. You need to know the thin line between this, and use the lack of knowledge to listen intently, gain some perspective, and be a part of the conversation.
To answer b) —
I fall in the bucket, where I don’t contribute if I don’t know. And this is largely driven by an ingrained thought into me as a kid during my education — don’t sound stupid by making random statements. Instead, stay quiet and listen. However, this is not entirely true. As I grew up, I realized that sounding stupid is the best way to become smart. In the 90s, we were told to not ask stupid questions, or to not ask something repeatedly. But believe me, ask stupid questions, till you have clarity. Contribute to a conversation, to gain perspective. But remember, the thin line I spoke about between arbit CP, and useful CP. Arbit CP is a pretentious way to contribute, to gaining brownie points. Hence, I keep making a mental note to myself, speak up, talk, contribute, even if you don’t know. Maybe you’ll learn something. Stop thinking what the other person perceives of you, and start thinking about how you can develop as a person.
To answer a)
I just wanted to share my two cents on what I was taught, or rather, what I learnt as a kid, and the challenges I face to undo what I learnt. Because today, I realize it’s okay to sound stupid, and learn, than to not sound stupid and not learn. Even today, when I make conversation, and say something that’s stupid, I sometimes get to hear, “Gyan, how can you say something so stupid?”. But, that’s when I remind myself “Gyan, don’t feel about the other person thinking you’re stupid. It’s this stupidity of yours, because of which you learnt something new today. So, it’s a win for you!”
And, the bigger challenge for me, is to undo the learning of not sounding stupid, and learn how to sound stupid; but stop before becoming an arbit CP contributor.
