The Override

There are times our minds are capable of some crazy things.

Crazy dreams.
Crazy imaginations.
Crazy actions.

Have you ever asked yourself, "why did I say that?" or "why did I do that?".

People allow their brain to override good common sense so often. Cigarettes is a great example.  It's not even debatable that smoking is bad for you, but somehow a lot of people override their minds and smoke. There's countless other examples of us overriding our good common sense.

The danger is overriding good, honest thinking. We often won't allow our brains to explore things beyond our comfort zone. Doing so hinders our empathy. It hinders our base of knowledge and understand.

Don't override your mind when it comes to fully understanding something.

Of course, the caveat is to not be a unfiltered open mind that just wildly accepts anything. That's not the point of this at all. The point is to allow yourself to consider all angles of an issue or topic before making a decision (if a decision is necessary at all even). The point is to not shut your brain down when a perspective isn't comfortable. Don't override good sensible thinking.
