The Importance of Empathy in Thinking
Thinking involves the highest level of empathy, allowing one to understand different perspectives. By stepping into others' viewpoints, individuals can enhance their thinking abilities. Empathy is compared to a muscle that needs exercise; failure to exercise it results in a decrease in strength. When facing challenges or engaging with different topics like morality or political issues, understanding diverse viewpoints aids in comprehensive and thoughtful reasoning.
