Cognitive Flexibility is a skill that can be learnt
Cognitive flexibility is a skill that can be developed by acknowledging the possibility of being wrong and considering alternative perspectives. While some individuals may have an innate inclination towards this skill, it is something that everyone can cultivate. Similar to learning how to sing regardless of having a speaking voice, developing cognitive flexibility involves holding beliefs at arm's length, being open to different perspectives, and choosing beliefs that serve one's goals while being willing to set them aside when necessary.
