Why men contradict themselves




















Sure this is a bit of fantasy, but good ideas always start with a bit of outrageous fantasy. This includes mediocre relationships and people in your life. Your mind will kick them out. No more bullshit.

No more confusion. No more not knowing. Free Course! We have all suffered from that problem. People say one thing, and do the other right? Why do you think this is? The key is emotional alignment. So what do I do about it? Because your mindset will not be fixed or seriously limited, how you view others, life, and the world will change.

As a result, you will be able to draw connections between viewpoints that clash, learning from opposite sides and all angles. Gaining the ability to seriously consider and understand different perspectives can help you ease intense emotions in any given situation or help you resolve conflicts. Being comfortable in a space of contradictions means being comfortable in a space where compromise can be reached.

Life can be a long, winding journey full of changes and lessons. So, don't be surprised if the experiences you go through nudge you to rearrange previously-held thought patterns and conclusions.

Upholding firm convictions can be a good thing, but if you are too afraid to be "wrong" or not keen on ever contradicting your most strongly-held beliefs, your search for truth will not be a fruitful one. Very well, then I contradict myself.

I am large; I contain multitudes. This strategy is the one we use in science. In a scientific study, there are often competing theories that attempt to explain some aspect of the world. When two theories conflict, researchers use data to decide which one to believe. Relying on the collection and analysis of data to determine whether theories are wrong is itself a protected value in science. The whole process forces conflicting ideas into stark juxtaposition in an effort to resolve conflicts.

Individuals, however, are less often forced into such quandaries day to day. One belief can happily coexist with other conflicting beliefs until someone or something highlights the contradiction. The resulting dissonance in some cases may lead to a careful reexamination of values, or it may lead to an expedient rationalization and a quick change of topic.
