In this episode, we explore fallibilism, the philosophical doctrine that absolute certainty is impossible and that all knowledge, in principle, could be mistaken. We break down its origins, from early Greek philosophers to modern thinkers like Charles Sanders Peirce and Karl Popper, and discuss its practical applications in daily life. Learn how fallibilism fosters intellectual humility, openness to feedback, and resilience in the face of failure.
We also connect fallibilism to science, where evolving discoveries—like shifting from a flat Earth to a spherical one or transitioning from atoms to quarks—highlight the importance of revising beliefs as new evidence emerges. This mindset isn’t just for philosophers; it’s a tool for personal growth, better decision-making, and navigating uncertainty in relationships, business, and life.
Listen in to discover how adopting fallibilism can help you ask better questions, embrace mistakes, and unlock continuous learning on your journey to success.
