Being Right
Everyone likes to be right. It hurts the ego when we're wrong about something.
Admitting we're wrong is hard and most people struggle with this.
Being right isn't the most important thing though. Being true is more important.
There are opportunities to prove yourself "right". It's more important to show yourself "true" though. True to your values and beliefs. True to who you are.
Proving your simply right about something cannot tell the story that being true can.
The power of being true to yourself far surpasses what being right can do.
Being right brings little peace and provides a temporary ego boost. Being true is a lifestyle and a provides greatest benefit both to yourself and to those around you. Constantly proving you're right makes little effect and change in your sphere of influence.
Be true first. Then if it works out, be right.
