How open minded are you? Rate yourself on a scale of 1-10. If you're like most people, the rating will be fairly high. After all, who wants to consider themselves or be considered closed-minded. This is a fascinating perspective with regard to the echo chambers in which we live our lives, particularly when we take an honest look at why it is so challenging to spend time in the discomfort of alternate thoughts, ideas, and beliefs. Ironically, it is the ability and willingness to sit in the discomfort that allows us to "round out" our perspectives even without having to adopt or advocating for the differences. And moving outside of our respective echo chambers allows us, at least in part, to expand our views and enhance our lives. Thank you for joining the conversation!
