Overcome your inner resistance to listening to another person's side of the story today. You might close your mind to some important information when your immediate reaction to what someone says is to become defensive and tune them out. Even if you dont agree with a single word you hear, the insight into the mindset of your loved one, colleague, or opponent can be quite valuable. There are enough limits that cant be avoided, so theres no reason to unnecessarily put any upon the openness of your mind. Respecting the opinions of others sets a fine example for everyone to follow.
