Philosophy of Life.
Each individual believes in something and that something is what I am
calling “ Philosophy Of Life”. It follows therefore that what you
believe in shapes your life, how you live. How you prioritise issues of
life too emanate from your philosophy of life.
What is a Philosophy of life? Philosophy is a particular system of
thought or doctrine or simply put its your inward beliefs and
convictions expressed outwardly.
This morning, I
would like to speak on one type of outward reaction we
portray which works against progress or success.
Type of Philosophy
Do you ever admit to being wrong? Are you open to correction or are we
the type that will say when being corrected, “ I Know”
Martha Beck a Motivational Speaker has this to say and I quote, “To be
wrong is good not because we have to hang on to our mistakes but because
acknowledging error is the foundation of learning. Countless people have
sacrificed their careers on the altar of their own rightness."
Being open to new information and opinions, inviting people to let you
know where you’re wrong is the best way to open the mind.
IN CONCLUSION
You will notice
that while insisting that you’re right is gratifying, accepting that you
are wrong can be transformative.
