Change Your Mind About Changing Your Mind.

'The greatest enemy of any one of our truths may be the rest of our truths.'

- William James

 

Either/Or. 

Guilty/Not Guilty. 

Trustworthy/Untrustworthy.  

Hired/Fired.  

With me/Against me.

On/Off.

 

These black/white filters of information sabotage good decision making.  

They shut out new information.

Our fear is that it may compel us to do that terribly humiliating thing:

Change our minds.  

 

Information liberates.

It allows us to exercise the true test of our freedom: 

Choice.  

At a cost:

Anxiety. (I might be wrong.)

Which is why we get paid.  

 

Be the naive inquirer.

Try this:

Treat all information that you receive as new.

'How interesting! Tell me more...'
