Too many people treat changing their mind like weakness, inconsistency, or admitting defeat. But real intelligence is not just being right with the information you had yesterday. It is being willing to update your thinking when better information shows up. Brian explores why this matters in business, leadership, relationships, parenting, health, and personal growth. The challenge is to separate your identity from your opinion, stop defending outdated beliefs, and ask a better question: "Is this still true?" The takeaway: the goal is not to look right. The goal is to get it right. -- Get on the list to receive Brian's monthly newsletter: https://nodaysoff.com/subscribe/ Tune in to this podcast every weekday morning for 10 minutes or less as Brian shares lessons and stories about how to make positive changes in your life and business, one day at a time.
