Synopsis

What if the greatest obstacle to discovering the truth is not a lack of information—but the certainty that we already understand?

Every day, we make decisions based on assumptions we rarely examine. We interpret conversations, judge situations, defend beliefs, and react to experiences through the lens of our own history. Sometimes that lens helps us. Sometimes it hides what we most need to see.

What Am I Missing? is an invitation to practice disciplined curiosity—the willingness to question our assumptions, investigate honestly, and allow reality to reshape our understanding.

Through stories from law enforcement, law, leadership, family, trauma, faith, and personal transformation, Jack Sorensen explores a simple but powerful question:

“What am I missing?”

This question is not an admission of weakness. It is an act of intellectual integrity.

Inside these pages, you will discover how to:

• Recognize when certainty may be hiding something important
• Ask better questions before defending conclusions
• Separate emotional reactions from external reality
• Follow evidence even when it challenges what you believe
• Accept responsibility without surrendering compassion
• Transform discovery into action, wisdom, and service

Disciplined curiosity is not about doubting everything.

It is about becoming the kind of person who can examine anything—including yourself.

Because growth does not begin when we finally have all the answers.

It begins when we become willing to ask better questions.
