We are in a world where people love to defend themselves, whether wrong or right. defense comes as a natural mechanism for us, I remember when I was young and doing something terrible, and when someone was trying to correct me, I was trying to give excuses and I remembered what the person asked me that day which is to ask myself if what I'm saying right. He made one statement that day that I will never forget, which is we will always have something to say, whether we are wrong or right. There is always a reason why we do things we do.
Ever since then, when people are trying to tell me that I'm wrong, I always listen because I realize that what I am doing might be wrong, which might not seem like that to me. Even some of the craziest people in the history of humanity have reasons for doing terrible things that they did in this world, and people will never forget them. What they are doing is justifiable to them and they are right but the truth to all other people is that they are insane, and what they are doing is very wrong. What seems right to you might be wrong when you are ready to listen to other people's opinions without trying to be defensive or trying to defend your wrong actions.
Try to listen
One common issue among people is our unwillingness to listen when we are wrong. Rather than being open to feedback, we tend to become defensive and create a negative atmosphere that only exacerbates the problem. Even when others try to provide constructive criticism, we often dismiss their opinions and cling to our own misguided beliefs. This can lead to situations where people remain silent rather than risking a confrontation, but this doesn't mean that we are in the right. Instead, it's important to remember that we can always learn and grow by listening to others and being open to new ideas. Only then can we truly improve ourselves and our relationships with those around us.
Listening to others can be challenging as it requires empathy and humility to accept when we are wrong. Some people may only acknowledge their mistakes when forced to by the law or face consequences, but admitting fault even without external pressure takes great courage and discipline. By doing so, we can avoid potential problems and improve our relationships with others.
When we accept our faults and do not defend ourselves It makes everything easier and might also save us time, money, and energy.
If you're the type of person who makes mistakes, it's important to be honest with yourself and admit when you're wrong instead of making excuses. This will make it easier for your customers and the people around you to understand and move forward. Being defensive and trying to shift the blame only complicates things and can lead to bigger problems. It's better to swallow your pride and admit fault, as it can save a lot of time and trouble in the long run.
Some people will even say admitting that you are wrong will only make you weak, but no, it's a lie. When you are wrong, and you know that you are wrong, Always admit it and make amends with this. You can gradually get better and people will want to associate with you for this because it makes you different from the rest of human population
