This week the chapter relates pretty well to my life. I say this because for the last two weeks I have been hearing different viewpoints and opinions and trying to decide what the correct answer is for all of them.
This may not sound very hard, but it's really hard to make a decision without having some biased opinion based on something that you have experienced before, or that you "think" you know the answer to. Trying to find a clear perspective on a problem is difficult, but not impossible.
I think the best way to accomplish this is to look at the problem from a fresh perspective. This is basically like stepping out of your comfort zone of what you think is right, and looking at things in a whole new way. This allows you to both see things that you might not have seen before, and realize that your way is not always the only way.
Once you can accomplish this (it's harder than it sounds) you'll find that hearing different opinions is a lot easier because you are more open to them. This new approach can lead you in the right direction in your search for the answer. If you don't believe me, try it yourself.
