Listening to others

My Friday Thought: Truly believing in Diversity of Thought and wanting it to exist means that you listen to the views that you may not agree with. You open your mind to could they be right? Maybe it is you that is wrong, or maybe you can both be right

I am a confident person, who is passionate about what I feel is right, however, I also have to ensure that I reflect on what others have to say when they hold an opposite view to my own. Personally I believe this reflection and openness to being incorrect allows me to be a better leader, person and parent.

I am, of course, often wrong corrected my many people, including the five year old I am trying to educate in acceptance of failure as an opportunity to learn and not something to be embraced over embarrassed. It isn't easy though, but then the best things often aren't.
