Are You Open-Minded? The Backfire Effect.

Monday, February 22, 2016
Are You Open-Minded?   The Backfire Effect.
Being open-minded means acknowledging the possibility of an idea being true or false. Once an idea is proven false, we should discard it.  Most of us don’t need to waste our time being open to things factually false, but for the rest we should keep an open mind and retain critical thoughts.

Avoid the Back Fire Effect.
Nobody wants to hear that they’re wrong. When someone challenges your beliefs, you should take that new information and reassess how you feel. Yet, the reverse is usually true. When we’re challenged with new information, it just makes our preexisting belief stronger.

Bad Habits
"I’ll start tomorrow.”  This is a bad habit.
And if we spend too much time thinking about a thing, this is also a bad habit. Because we’ll never get it done!!!

But how can we get rid of a bad habit?
By replacing it with another habit:

"The habit of doing stuff"!!

Take action, solve problems, create something.
It's going to be the best day of your life!!!
