The Possible Mistake

 

In a conversation, always make room for the possibility of being wrong, by doing that, you automatically make room for the possibility of the other person being right.

And here's the thing, having the statement "I could be wrong" in the back of your mind, will not contaminate your confidence, but it would keep you open and receptive to what others are saying, it would keep you focused on finding the truth instead of focusing on being right, and it would allow you to remain humble, which is one of the secret ingredients for connecting with others.
