Let Go of Your Self-Rated Savior Level Opinions
Finding truth in a pool of lies
One of life’s most challenging things is to shift another person’s thinking.
Growing beyond what you believe is no small challenge. We genuinely hold tightly to our opinion, and I am not sure that is entirely healthy. It is true that once you believe something, you see life through the paradigm of that belief.
Let’s say you believe a particular person is a liar, and you know that’s true. That sounds weird. But, the lying person privately decides to stop lying.
