RE: Perspective Can Change How We View Things
Jeff Bezos once said that people who are right a lot often change their minds. Smart people revise their decisions because they gathered new information that wasn’t there before. Steve Jobs was also famous for changing his mind often. I tie this back to perspective. Smart people understand that things often look different when looked at from a different perspective and embrace the new info to change their mind. Most of us struggle to see outside of our perspective and struggle to change.
great example you provided - it's true that it is difficult for many people to change their viewpoint and that is why I wrote up this blog - to help people recognize that looking at things from a different perspective can be a benefit - I hadn't heard about smart people changing their mind a lot , but it makes sense.
