The approach I try to take, though not always well, is to try and figure out why I have an opinion on a specific topic. Is this based on a few headlines I’ve read, or is it because of personal experience or research I have done? Sometimes the opinion can feel like a strong conviction from either origination, but if I realize the opinion is based on just what someone else said, I probably am more willing to consider a different view.

I 100% agree and I like how you specify 'though not always well' because I feel the same way too. I just ran into that the other day where I realized I was doing something I know to not work the way I'd want. It's so easy to fall into the 'easy' path.

The 'easy' path is definitely more comfortable, so it takes getting used to being uncomfortable sometimes!
