Do you believe you’re always right? Do you make room to hear other’s perspectives? Are you open to people who disagree with you? ๐ค
๐ No one sees the world 100% exactly the same. ๐
Think about 2 people who attend a music concert. They both experience the exact same concert, hear the exact same music, but yet they both came away with separate opinions. โ๏ธ
PERSON 1: “That concert was AMAZING!” ๐
PERSON 2: “That concert was CRAP!” ๐คฌ
How does that happen? Who was right?! ๐ค
A lot of opinions we hold are just that…opinions. We feel certain ways towards certain things. It’s not to say either person is right or wrong, but it’s a friendly reminder we each have different reasons for why we carry our opinions. ๐
PERSON 1: “They’re my favorite band, and they performed just as AMAZING as I hoped!” ๐
PERSON 2: “I had a feeling this band was CRAP! My friend even told me not to come!” ๐คฌ
Do you see now some of the reasons why they had different opinions? ๐
That’s why it’s important we develop the skills of empathy:
๐ So we can step into other people’s shoes.
๐ So we can be open to the possibility of a new perspective to embrace.
๐ So it can challenge how we perceive a certain situation.
๐ So we remind ourselves we all have reasons for why people do what they do.
