Be Opened Minded

A Closed Mind Never Learns

When I started opening my mind to both sides of a debate I started seeing another point of view that had value and that really surprised me. I would have never described myself as a narrow-minded person, but narrow minded I have been.

I Started To See Another Point of View

My first experience was watching six people trying to explain two opposing points of view. Now before this moment I was clearly on one side and apparently didn’t even give slight consideration to another point of view. But as the discussion continued I gradually started realizing how closed minded I was on the subject matter and that really surprised me. The new me saw the other side with more clarity and definitely agreed in part to what they were saying. Now don’t get me wrong I still slightly tilted to my regular side of view but definitely saw more light of reason on the other side more then ever before.

My Mind Is More Open

Since that debate which opened my thinking I have viewed information with a new set of eyes and my brain is paying attention to what is being said. I’m definitely more opened minded then ever in my life.

I Think I'm Finding Myself

I like the new open-minded person I have become and that makes me realize I’m finding myself for the first time in my life.

Open Is Better Then Closed

Finding myself and becoming who I really am is a wonderful experience and I now see the value of keeping my mind open, because that’s helping me become who I really am.
