We get into argument quite easily. And the reason for this alacrity in proving our point right is that we see only our point. Our narrow vision blinds us to the other's point of view. When we criticize others, we don't make a statement about them ; we make a statement about ourselves, about our point of view. Where is his point of view? We don't see it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist; it only means that we don't want to see it. Once we open our eyes to the other side of story, we understand the other person. As Stephen Covey has rightly said that your first endeavor should be to understand & then, to be understood.

Open Your Eyes
We get into argument quite easily. And the reason for this alacrity in proving our point right is that we see only our point. Our narrow vision blinds us to the other's point of view. When we criticize others, we don't make a statement about them ; we make a statement about ourselves, about our point of view. Where is his point of view? We don't see it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist; it only means that we don't want to see it. Once we open our eyes to the other side of story, we understand the other person. As Stephen Covey has rightly said that your first endeavor should be to understand & then, to be understood.
