In your opinion do you like hearing my opinion?
// November 18th, 2009 // Life
I noticed today that for somebody who is pretty easy going I have some strong opinions about things. I see the PROs and CONs of being stubborn about my own opinions. The biggest flaw I noticed was that I a lot of times consider my opinion to be the majority. For instance I convince myself and sometimes assume that most people would agree with my opinion and in my mind it becomes the best opinion without any hard statistics to back it up. Now it may be true if its a well educated assumption but the flaw here is that you’ll probably get as many votes for different ideas evenly across the board most of the time if you ask enough people.
I’m sure this sort of thing that I do annoys people even know no one has ever said anything. I should probably correct this before anyone does say anything.
hmm how to stop doing something like this can be challenging… maybe every I notice myself having an opinion on the right way to do something I’ll try to think about my reasoning and find factual backing to that opinion. Yeah thats what I’ll do.
Later space cadets!








i’m really stubborn about my opinions too.. and it’s almost dangerous because i think and speak very much like a lawyer, and so when i have an opinion, it becomes like a case for me to prove it, even if it’s flawed. when i approach it that way, it’s not really about the truth, it’s just how convincing your story is. that’s hard to change too..
