If you are going to be concerned about being right all the time you will miss out on opportunities to learn from others and you are keeping your mind closed to a world of information.
Wouldn’t it be nice to walk away from a conversation feeling like, “wow that was interesting, I never knew that, and I feel okay that I didn’t know that.” Feeling like you gained new knowledge of something, instead of your usual walking away angry or upset or arguing your point of why you are right……that sounds like a lot of work and aggravation to me.
If you can work on letting this go, you will benefit in ways such as;
Ø You are allowing yourself to be more open minded, gaining new ideas and information.
Ø You will become a better listener.
Ø Your self-confidence and self-esteem will improve.
Ø You won’t worry about what others think so much.
Ø Your relationship with your partner and relationships with others will improve.
Ø You will be HAPPIER!!!
