Mentee:
I don’t ask in class, I keep myself out of the spotlight. I am afraid that my questions are funny or too stupid to ask. They silence me. What should I do?

Answer:
There are no stupid questions. If you don’t understand something, raise your hand and ask. Even if it is a stupid question, it doesn’t mean it is easy to be answered.

So, when there is a possibility of complexcity (read: hard) to answer, will it be still a stupid question?

Simply question or ‘stupid question’ pulls a boundless exploration. You can ask to more than one person and get different answers.

This will only be known until you ask.

Do ask, free yourself.
