Why is this so Important?

Well, simply put, it’s the Truth.

I don’t mean this to be mean or anything, it is just a part of being Human.

I am no different — I frequently find myself wrong in Life.

You need to Approach situations with the Belief that you may be Wrong from the start.

I see Leaders go into situations where they 100% Believe they know EXACTLY what is happening.

But do you know what I see 95% of the time when I’m in the same room as these Leaders?
