It seems that many people are often fixated on trying to convince others that they are right. Endless loops of trying to find just the perfect argument that could win them over.

Enough discussions to only realize that not only did you not convince the other person, but you also have some breathing to do in order to calm yourself again.

What’s the point?

Isn’t it more valuable or interesting to simply exchange opinions, take what you like from others, and stop? To realize that others may have different viewpoints?

This diversity of thought is not only acceptable; it’s essential. Being strong and educated means having the confidence to stand by your beliefs without being easily swayed in a debate. That’s important, but it also takes time.

Often, arguments feel like a competition where someone must lose. People become so focused on proving their point that they overlook the importance of understanding one another. This mindset can lead to unnecessary conflict and hurt feelings.

Instead of trying to “win” an argument, let’s shift our focus to fostering understanding and respect for different opinions. Embracing diverse perspectives can enrich our lives and lead to more meaningful conversations. Not to mention, you’ll live a happier life.
