Why do we believe that we have the answers? How could we know anything if there are 6 billion people who change the world every freakin' day in some way? (not to consider that that's humanity alone)

I am shocked by how many times I think that I have the answer or I know something and then it turns out I didn't know all the facts (how could I possibly know everything?) and I missed another precious opportunity because of my "knowledge", which is basically made up of what I've seen of the world until today.

I think we overestimate our personal knowledge and that's what makes our life seem much more limited than it actually is.
