Admitting IDK is only the first step. Because the growth is the natural progression of things, you need to move beyond the state in which you Don't Know.

This means that everytime you say 'I Don't Know', you must think about what comes next and consequently add 'Let me go learn'.

Adopting good values, like I Don't Know, is admirable but very dangerous when taken out of it's appropriate context, which is the philosophy it depends on.
