About This Quote

When people think they are in the wrong, it’s easy to lose the respect of their peers. True, if people aren’t open-minded enough to accept your point of view, then they’re not worth your time. However, you must not take this as a personal attack and allow it to affect your faith and beliefs. To be open-minded is to be willing to open one’s mind and heart for new ideas and other points of view.

It’s to be willing to change your ways to accommodate those who are different than you. You must not feel as if you need to prove yourself as right. You don’t need to fight those who are arguing differently than you; instead, you need to educate them so they can understand why yours is right.
