Ability to withstand the absence of answers
I recently learned about the concept of Negative Capability. The term is said to have been proposed by the poet John Keats and means "the ability to remain in uncertainty, wonder, and skepticism, without hastily seeking facts and reasons. Its synonym is Positive Capability, the so-called "problem-solving ability. @tokoroten: In the planning business, the end remains uncertain because it is filled from the top down. I'm very scared and anxious about that. And when such talk comes to the attention of people with low anxiety tolerance, they start stuffing their ends, so the planning becomes less flexible, so until some planning is done, it becomes a secret meeting limited to people with Uncertainty Tolerance.... ... So, well, sometimes the quickest way to get ahead is to increase your uncertainty tolerance so that you can get to the inner circle on that side.
When you see someone with low anxiety tolerance, you start stuffing your ends.
