Admit when you’re wrong
As we’ve seen, there is value in having opinions and being willing to discuss and defend them in public. However, when you are unwilling to admit that you have made an error or missed a step in your thinking, you go from having opinions to being an opinionated blockhead. The ability to admit errors and incorporate lessons learned from mistakes is essential to success. Not learning from your mistakes dooms you to repeat them and life is too short to do stupid things over and over.
