Do not be an Ostrich

During my daily dog walk today, I thought  discovering something you want to learn about is nice.  While learning, you might want to prove something you think is true.  You might spend years and years trying to prove whatever you think is right only to discover that you were wrong.

At that moment, most people will feel defeated at first but at some point you might realize that you now have proven the opposite of whatever you thought was right which might be just as important.

Now, you are on a mission to defend something you did not believe in.

Anyhow, to tell the above tale in another way is that you might see someone crying about their research and how they are so sad that they are wrong.  You being someone not involved with that person's project at all say lightly "what you told me is great! I can't believe it's true!"

I hope my reader understand what I am trying to say here.

Be open-minded.
