It’s Okay to Admit You Don’t Know What to Think Yet
There’s a lot happening in the world right now. News moves fast. Opinions move faster. It can feel like everyone is expected to have an immediate stance on everything the second it happens. Say something. Confirm you’re paying attention. Show that you care. Be informed, be confident, be certain.
But real understanding doesn’t work like that. It doesn’t arrive on demand or on a timer. Most of the things worth thinking about take time to sit with. They need space. They need context. They need the kind of quiet that isn’t easy to find when every corner of the internet has already moved into argument mode.
The Pressure to Have an Instant Opinion
Taking your time is not the same as not caring. In fact, it often means the opposite — that you care enough to want to get it right, to think deeply instead of reacting for the sake of appearing “in the know.” There is nothing weak about being in the middle of the process. There is nothing wrong with saying, “I’m still thinking about it.”
Understanding Takes Time, Not Speed
The world rewards speed, performance, certainty, and statements that sound strong even when they’re built on shaky ground. But you are not required to match that pace. You are allowed to be human — and humans learn, question, adjust, and take a moment to breathe before deciding what something really means.
Not knowing yet is an honest place. It means you haven’t outsourced your perspective to the loudest voice. It means you’re choosing clarity over chaos. It means you’re giving yourself room to feel, to observe, to piece things together instead of forcing your mind into a conclusion it isn’t ready for.
Silence Doesn’t Mean You Don’t Care
You don’t need to prove anything by reacting quickly. You don’t need to pretend you’ve already processed something you’re still sitting with. You don’t have to know what to think right away. You can just be here. Watching. Listening. Caring in your own, steady way.
Not Knowing Can Be the Most Honest Place to Stand
Saying “I don’t know yet” doesn’t make you uninformed or disconnected.
It makes you thoughtful.
And that’s something we need more of — especially now.
Have a Great Day Everyone

Great post Andrew, and so true. It is OK to acknowledge that you don't know, some people have a real tough time with this and instead of pretending or feeling an ego hit, listen and learning from others...and go out and invest the time to learn the subject matter (if that is something that you want to learn).
Thanks Kyle. Ego is the downfall of a lot of ppl. In my experience, there's way more power in being humble. Hope you day is a good one.

Hello Andrew. This is a Powerful Thought Provoking Post. We should always move at our own speed. Avoid being rushed by the status quo of someone else's opinion. Gathering the facts and determine for yourself builds your confidence.
So true. Thanks Friend
