Are You Willing To Choose Truth Over Your Opinion?

Long ago, as a child, I made one of the most important decisions of my life: I made up my mind to never, ever place my opinion over truth.

I knew someone close by who caused a lot of damage to his loved ones by being narrow-minded, prideful, refusing to listen to truth or to ever be corrected, and always going with his own belief. It destroyed others around him.

I observed how this mentality is directly destructive - both to ourselves and to others.

So I made up my mind to always have an open mind. To allow correction. Listen to feedback. Be a lifelong student. Never think that I know it all.

The interesting thing about this attitude is that it results in profound insights, powerful understanding, and a solid foundation in actual truth versus perceived truth.

Perceived truth is believing that we know the truth, based on our limited selection of preferred facts that align with our preconceived opinions. We believe what we want to believe, because it’s how we prefer the truth to be, based on our background, culture, experience, trauma, personality, etc.

Most people live in a lie. A nice, comfortable, pleasant lie. A lie that they create themselves, but which they convince themselves to be the truth. It’s a bubble of deception, a hub of twisted realities, that we build around our minds in order to feel safe and reassured.

When this bubble is challenged, we respond with fierce emotions, because it is terrifying to the deepest core of our existence. What if our bubble is wrong? Impossible. Never! The very thought is just too nightmarish.

So we defend our beliefs at all costs. We sacrifice relationships. Love. Profit. Opportunities. Success. Hope. Breakthrough. Satisfaction. Fruitfulness. Joy. Dreams. We sacrifice all that and a great deal more on the altar of fear. The fear that what we believe could, potentially, be wrong.

This is what keeps the human race in perpetual deception and darkness. Because we find our security, our identity and our strength in the lies we choose to believe, while telling ourselves and everybody else that it’s the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Millions of books are written, billions of webpages are created, trillions of social media posts are made, and even more comments are posted to defend our false realities. Because everyone is terrified to be wrong. So we fight all day long, every minute of every hour of every day. Not necessarily consciously, but at the deep hidden levels of our inner being, where we continually make up arguments in our soul to defend our lies.

Because… what if we would be wrong?

We would be worthless! We'd lose our value and identity! People would mock us. We would feel insecure. And so on.

Yet, having the ability to be corrected in our beliefs is what liberates us. Strengthens us. Empowers us.
