The Hidden Cost of Always Being Right
Tonight, it’s not about politics—but, self-reflection. Often in personal life, I find myself overreacting and not truly listening. Even when I ask for nuance, it’s rarely to understand—it’s to prove I’m right, and that narrows my perspective, leaving blind spots that I can’t ignore. If we’re always the smartest person in the room, we’ll never know true enlightenment. Overconfidence doesn’t just limit you; it cuts you off from what others offer. Shift your focus from winning alone to growing together and listen, really listen, embrace “I don’t know.” Admitting that, isn’t a weakness, it’s courage that shadows pretending you’ve got it all figured out.
