Excellent writing, I really enjoyed the content of the post and the way it’s written. This phrase particularly stood out to me: > We are stronger by considering the opposite first. That’s something I’m not very good at, but work hard to do. In many situations I have a tendency to assume I’m right, and that as soon as my interlocutor understands my argument, they will see I’m right. “I’m a rational person and I believe X, so if you don’t believe X you must be irrational.” So I spend lots of time clarifying my argument, and it gets nowhere. By genuinely spending a larger proportion of my time thinking about others’ points of view, I arrive at better solutions.
