1) Intellectual humility

“A foolish person thinks, “I already know that.”
He keeps anything new from coming into his mind.
A wise person thinks, “I don’t know the whole story.”
She opens herself up to even greater wisdom.”
— Haemin Sunim
When I interviewed Prof. Noel Caplice on our podcast last year, he spoke about how his experience working at the Mayo Clinic revolutionised his learning forever more.
As he sat beside the world’s leading medical experts in meetings every day, Noel was struck by how often they would respond to a medical question with the reply:
“I don’t know, let’s go find out what the answer is.”
Is it a coincidence that some of the world’s leading medical experts have the humility to say these 3 powerful words and many of us do not?

A survey is a tool that is commonly used when carrying out human research. It is usually used to extract data from a predefined group of people.

Surveys are often used to assess emotions, thoughts and feelings of the respondents. It can be specific and limited, or more general and widespread—depending on the researcher and purpose of the survey.
When researchers evaluates a survey taken over a sample population which is usually part of a larger population, it can be used to make predictions on the larger population. Such predictions may be wrong in some cases, but they are legitimate statistical procedures.

What is a Survey?

A survey is a research tool that uses questionnaires to collect data from a predefined group of respondents, and analyzing those responses to discover trends and make future predictions. It consists of a predetermined set of questions given to a sample of a large population.
There are a variety of uses for surveys, which can be carried out in different ways depending on the methodology and purpose of research. Some of the uses of surveys are; behavioural analysis, customer service, competitive analysis, etc.
The need to obtain facts about a research topic is what leads us to carry out a survey. These facts are obtained through standard procedures that ensures each response is unbiased.
