Don't have to be right

Permalinks to this entry: individual page or in monthly context. For more material from my journal, visit my home page or the archive.

Jason Kottke lists some things an instructor at his work asks people to do when learning, and talking. I don't do nearly enough of them.

How often do many of us (especially us of the male sort) proceed with discussions mostly so we can say things and be right, rather than to listen or learn? I know I often do. Ooh ooh, look at me, look at how much I know.

It's hard to learn that way. And even harder to be a good person that way. I'll keep working on it.
