The Importance of Difficult Conversations and Challenging Beliefs
Challenging beliefs through difficult conversations is crucial as it helps us grow and learn. Conflict delayed only multiplies, causing anxiety and disorientation when beliefs are challenged. However, it is better to have ideas tested in the abstract than have convictions demolished by reality. Engaging in uncomfortable conversations voluntarily fortifies individuals against challenges and is proven to be salutary. Shielding individuals from uncomfortable conversations, especially in the education system, impedes growth and learning. Having difficult conversations and encountering diverse opinions is essential for personal development, even if it is painful, as it aids in self-improvement and growth.
