The Importance of Filtering Information
Filtering information is crucial in order to distinguish what is true and what is not. It is important to critically evaluate the things people tell you and the information you come across, fact-checking and testing beliefs before accepting them as true. An example is the misconception that webinars are dead, despite evidence that webinars can still be effective for businesses. Relying solely on the opinions of others without proper verification can lead to erroneous decisions.
