The Foundation, #510

In this episode, we talk about relative and absolute truth. Scientific hypotheses are continually revised. We operate with the best information we have. In the past, medical wisdom said we cut people and let them bleed to cure the infection. Today we regard such thoughts as barbarous and cruel. In our lives, as we build businesses, relationships and live our lives the best we can, we act according to what we understand to be right and true. Sometimes we learn new things. When that happens we revise our beliefs. None of this changes absolute truth. Choosing to pursue truth and at the same time learning the difference between what is true and what is current understanding is essential to create real power.
