I think I’ve mentioned it here before, but I’m a fan of Seth Godin. I check out his blog almost daily, and if not, I stay caught up at least every few days.
Some days, he has long, in-depth blog posts. On others, it’s just a few lines of something to think about.
Earlier this week, he wrote a post called the ones who disagree with you. He makes 5 brief points about why people might disagree with you, but then ends by saying, “Or it could simply be that they disagree with you.” No deeper reason. It doesn’t have to be that they are uninformed or controlled by demons; it could simply be a disagreement.
I re-read this post this morning, and had a thought…
There are countless reasons why people could disagree with you, well beyond the 5 or 6 that Seth listed.
A big one, though -
Maybe it’s you. Maybe you’re wrong.
