"For example, I am fluent in English. (Readers may disagree)."
it's always the seemingly smallest emotional intelligence things huh? Good leadership & interpersonal effectiveness just gets supercharged by stuff like saying "I don't know about this thing."
I can't quite see if the opener in the video is the classic style or the newer kind, but the newer kind stumped several intelligent members of my family when they first came out. By "newer" I mean the ones that make a cut just BELOW the rim of the can, allowing you to lift off the top and a tiny bit of the rest of the can; the classic can opener cuts inside the rim.
I think you're very on point with the 'shame' part. For me, these feelings are our biggest mental barriers - guilt, shame and regret. Shame that has been conditioned, and so much so that you become 'blind' and unconscious to it. I live in Thailand so I know a thing or two about shame culture and how powerful it can knock someone out of their own identity. We should all embrace our idiotic self.
This line took me out:

Yeah exactly, it’s just a matter of pointing out that sometimes it has nothing to do with intelligence. You just can’t see the cow, so to speak
