每日原则：知道什么时候应当停止为自己的观点辩护，信任自己的决策程序

独立思考，努力为自己相信的观点辩护，都是很重要的，但总会有些时候，更明智的做法是停止为你的观点辩护，接受可信的其他人的观点。这也许会很难，但保持头脑开放，相信可信的其他人所达成的共识会比你的观点更好，是一种更聪明的做法，最终对你也更好。假如你无法理解他们的观点，可能只不过是因为他们的思维方式恰好是你的盲点。如果所有的证据、所有可信者的观点都与你的观点相反，你还是按自己的意愿行动，你就是在危险地一意孤行。

It’s important that you think independently and fight for what you believe in, but there comes a time when it’s wiser to stop fighting for your view and move on to accepting what believable others think is best. This can be extremely difficult. But it’s smarter and ultimately better for you to be open-minded and have faith that the consensus of believable others is better than whatever you think.  If you can’t understand their view, you’re probably just blind to their way of thinking. If you continue doing what you think is best when all the evidence and believable people are against you, you’re being dangerously arrogant.
