“Nonsense is good only because common sense is so limited. ” ~ George Santayana
Is it just me, or have we become so advanced that everything has become more complicated? Who was it that decided unless you are an expert in a certain field you can’t have an opinion?
Remember when if you wanted to know how something was affecting people, you just asked?
Remember listening to your gut and gauging what you would say next based on a person’s body language and responses?
When did having a simple conversation become so scary?
When did we decide the best way to figure something out is to ask everyone (except those in question) through polls or surveys what they think?
If I want to know what your favourite meal is I won’t hire a Chef to conduct a survey of folks in your age group and income level who live in your neighbourhood to find out what they like and then serve it up to you.
I will just ask you.
Don’t get me wrong, I think surveys are fun. Studies produce helpful results.
But please let’s not forsake face to face asking.
