Curiosity

Curiosity is the best bridge to understanding why someone came to their conclusion. We are too quick now; we judge which conclusions are wrong and right. The alternative: when we are curious, ask questions, and are willing to change our minds, we open the door for learning and connection. But when ideology comes in the way, we close the door. I think it’s helpful to understand that, in the setting you’re in and the person you are talking to, it’s worth asking, Is this a space where everyone is willing to change their mind? If not, your ideas are unlikely to spread. Change course.
