The 4 levels of Learning
I don't recall where I picked this up. I'm sure it was a parental tape as Dad was a Psychologist.
There are 4 levels of learning:
1. Unconscious Incompetence- You don't know that you don't know something
2. Conscious Incompetence- You know that you don't know something.
3. Conscious Competence- You know something and know that you know it.
4.Unconscious Competence- You know something so well that it now is second nature.
Most of us here ( well some of us) have passed step 1 and are now off and running with step 2. Some have reached step 3. And a select few (see low member ranking) have reached step 4.
The problem for most step 4 levels is that they can't chunk down to level 1 and 2 because it now is resident in their unconscious. I for one, am grateful that this is not the case with WA.

i'd like to vote for unconscious incompetence because ignorance is bliss and a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing
So true Labman, Humility in success is a virtue and a very positive trait. No matter how successful we are or may become we should never forget we once knew nothing and had to progress the steps, as we reach out to those whom are where we once were.
Thanks for the info.
