If you want to destroy your ego just try to make yourself do a daily 5 minute task that you've been putting off, and you'll see how weak you actually are in the face of the smallest obstacle. Mine is washing the eggs we gather from the chicken coop. It barely takes any time, I know I should do it, my life is improved by doing it-and yet, it's a huge struggle to get myself to do it. No matter how powerful or capable I am, I keep returning to the eggs, and how the smallest, most insignificant responsibility has revealed the cracks in my psyche, places where the dark and light bleed into each other, where the longer I pull and examine, the less of myself I seem to find.
Arguments almost never change anyone’s mind, because more often than not, people are not defending their stance, they are defending their intelligence. In the heat of an argument, the issue is rarely the issue itself; what is really at stake is the fear of appearing foolish. And so the conversation becomes a performance, not a pursuit of truth.
Change usually happens later, in private, when the person is no longer performing their intelligence for an audience. It happens quietly, when there is no need to protect pride.
That is, if the belief is strong enough to be conceived at all. Ironically, being strong in what you believe demands a certain fragility. True conviction expects you to be secure enough to let it break. The same strength that allows you to hold a belief must also allow you to loosen your grip on it.
Because real strength is not rigidity. It is the confidence to withstand the possibility of being wrong.
