How willing are you to learn something new?
How open are you to new perspectives?
Only when we're open can we really hear what's being said or
really see what's happening or really experience the moment.
Openness demands that we be willing to move to places we've never
been before. It asks us to continually challenge the foundations
of our belief systems so we can test out new ideas. And to do
that, we need to accept insecurity.
Be open to seeing things:
- from another's point of view,
- from a higher and more inclusive perspective
- with a beginner's attitude of wonder.
"The struggle of the mind to keep itself free from every sort of
bondage -- to remain curious, open, unsatiated in all its
relations with nature -- is tenfold more difficult than the
cultivation of a stable, satisfying point of view, but a
thousandfold more precious."
- Gardner Murphy
