If you're not open-minded, you can't even do it...and I've found it fascinating to think of the word fair, and I've been looking at that a lot lately, and people use this word fair completely in the sense of it's not fair to me.
Ever wondered if your mind is as open as you think it is? In this episode of 'Recovery (Sort Of)', Billy and Jason tackle the fascinating concept of open-mindedness. Joined by their guest Jenny, they explore what it really means to have an open mind and why it's so crucial in our lives. Most people believe they're open-minded, but how true is that?
Science tells us our brains often seek out information that confirms our existing beliefs, ignoring anything that contradicts them. So, how can we genuinely measure our open-mindedness? And are there ways to cultivate it further? Billy, Jason, and Jenny dive into these questions, even taking a couple of quizzes to put their own open-mindedness to the test. You'll find yourself reflecting on your own ability to embrace new ideas and perspectives.
They discuss the benefits of being curious and learning from diverse viewpoints, highlighting how these practices can enrich our lives and foster personal growth. But it's not all smooth sailing—being open-minded can be challenging, especially in tough situations. The hosts differentiate between listening to others and agreeing with them, stressing that open-mindedness doesn't mean you have to accept every belief or action you encounter. It's about being willing to hear and consider different perspectives.
If you're ready to challenge your own thinking and grow in your recovery journey, this episode is a must-listen. Dive in and see if your mind is as open as you believe it to be.
