However, this leads to a misconception: We know it all. Instead, Gawdat argues that <strong>our knowledge is deeply limited.&nbsp;<\/strong>The more you embrace the reality that you can&#8217;t know everything, the happier you can be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: Some philosophers have gone beyond Gawdat and endorsed <a href=\"https:\/\/plato.stanford.edu\/entries\/skepticism\/\"><em>skepticism<\/em><\/a>, the view that <em>we actually know nothing at all<\/em>. Because we can\u2019t verify our senses independently, they reason, we can\u2019t be certain that they\u2019re reliable in the first place. Consequently, no information gleaned from our senses can be rightly considered knowledge).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gawdat points out that most of our knowledge is rooted in our senses. For instance, we know that it\u2019s raining outside when we hear pitter-pattering on the roof, or see water trickling down the window. Yet, our senses are limited; our eyes can\u2019t see colors beyond the visible spectrum, and our ears can\u2019t hear frequencies that are too high or too low. So, we should expect the knowledge generated by our senses to reflect their limitations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: While Gawdat only claims that <em>most <\/em>of our knowledge is derived from sensory experiences, <a href=\"https:\/\/plato.stanford.edu\/entries\/rationalism-empiricism\/#Empi\"><em>empiricism<\/em><\/a> states that <em>all <\/em>of our knowledge is derived from our senses. According to this view, even intuitive knowledge of mathematical facts\u2014like 2+2=4\u2014is grounded in sensory experience.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further, Gawdat points out that we use words to convey knowledge, but words are imperfect vehicles for truth. For instance, if you try to describe the ocean, it will fail to fully capture the ocean\u2019s beauty. Yet, because we have to use words to convey our experiences, the knowledge we convey is incomplete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: Philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein went beyond Gawdat\u2019s claims that words are merely <em>imperfect <\/em>vehicles of truth; instead, he argued that words don\u2019t reflect objective truth whatsoever. On the contrary, he claimed that the \u201ccorrect\u201d usage of language is simply a matter of <a href=\"https:\/\/plato.stanford.edu\/entries\/wittgenstein\/#MeanUse\">using words according to our conventions<\/a>. In other words, \u201ctrue\u201d sentences are just sentences that follow the linguistic rules that we construct\u2014regardless of whether they accurately reflect reality.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since we actually know relatively little, <strong>the misconception of knowledge distorts our expectations and makes us unhappy<\/strong>. For instance, we might \u201cknow\u201d that it\u2019ll be sunny at the beach tomorrow, yielding disappointment when it ultimately rains. So, by recognizing the limits of our knowledge, we set more accurate expectations and better satisfy the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/happiness-formula\/\">happiness formula<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How realistically do you perceive your own level of knowledge?
