Stubborn?

Is having your own opinion and insisting on them a virtue or simple a form of stubbornness?

Don’t great people challenge conventions along their way to greatness?

But don’t great people also open their mind to the possibility that they are wrong and are willing to seek criticism to get better?

Do we have to insist that everyone else sees our way for us? For what end?

But then again, if we are to waver whenever any external opposing points of views are proposed to us, then we will never get anywhere.

Balance. Moderation, as of everything else. Moderation even in moderation.

Be self-aware, be open-minded, consider the possibilities and be flexible.

Choose your battles wisely. We don’t have to convince everyone that our views are right all the time. Sometimes, we may even be wrong.
