Closer to "The Truth"

in photography •  7 years ago 

I experience people who are loud and often talk mostly as people who do not listen and thus they have only one view...their own... And since they only have one view, they can also present it with great decisiveness.
If you have many perspectives, you automatically become quieter, because you have much to think about 🤔

I agree with you. And I will add that I often find myself having a view that's more informed or beneficial to the situation, but I miss the tools to express it, leaving me stuck with my own silent disagreement in a less-than-optimal situation. The challenge is, then, to voice my opinion in a convincing manner.

To avoid misunderstanding, this is not about who wins an argument. After I offer my view and the other party accepts it as superior, I wouldn't mind someone else further challenging it.

It's about creating a process where the we keep improving together and respect each other along the way.

I totally understand you :) - I have always the same 'problem' of expressing my thoughts in a convincing manner. I am mostly overruled by the loud people - that's why i stay quiet and then later I am disappointed that I could not express my point of view clearly. I really love good conversations but i understood that i'm not made to discuss with a lot of people. It works for me with one or two persons in a quiet manner where everybody is listening to what the others want to say. Then there is a process of improving each other with respect.
