CHANGE YOUR MIND?

"If you never change your mind, why have one?"Quote by Edward de Bono, author of Lateral Thinking and Six Thinking HatsREFLECTION:We live in a time, especially in politics that changing your mind is considered a bad thing... "a flip-flopper."But as Maya Angelou said "when you know better, you do better" so why is changing your mind a bad thing? Are you open to new possibilities?  New thinking? Can you change your mind?If you can't, why have one????

You have to look with the heart."THE LITTLE PRINCE by Antoine De Saint-ExuperyREFLECTION:What are you looking for?Do you see with your eyes or your heart?What does looking with the heart look like for you?Is there a situation you are blind to that requires you to look through the lens of the heart?Open your heart eyes!

WHICH SELF?
