Critical Question

"What important truth do very few people agree with you?"- Peter Thiel Question

This would be a very tough question for most people to answer.  Why?   Because most people apt to group think too well.  It is safer to agree than to do your own thinking.

I often do my own thinking.   It is not that I do not eventually apt to the belief of the group but it is not automatic.   I am willing to be looked upon add being difficult if what I believe is critical for the group to learn and company to adopt.

It is not rare for me to ask during interviews of the company is looking for a yes man.  I am not that and would rather walk away from an opportunity than to fit in just to make a paycheck.   It is just not me.

The truth for me that I suspect many people would not agree with its that a person can fit in and contribute by being an independent thinker.

Today's question is:

"Are you a yes man/woman?"
