If you don't think you have a blind spot, yours is probably bigger than anyone else's.  We all have them - it's part of being human.  In the physical realm, science calls this a scotoma, a physiological obscuration of the visual field corresponding to the inability to detect light in part of the optic disc. The fascinating thing is the brain fills in the surrounding information from the other eye so the blind spot is not normally perceived. Applied to business the lesson is profound.
