Activity:
Focus on a Disagreement in Which you Were Not Fairminded
Think of a disagreement you were in
recently in which you now realize you were
not fairmindedly listening to the views of
someone else.
Perhaps you were defensive during the conversation,
or were trying to dominate the other person. You were
not trying to see the situation from the perspective of
the person with whom you were interacting. At the time,
however, you believed you were being fully reasonable.
Now you realize that you were close-minded.
