Note | Kathryn Schulz explores why we find it so gratifying to be right and so maddening to be mistaken, and how this attitude toward error corrodes relationships. She claims that "error is both a given and a gift" - one that can transform our worldviews, our relationships, and, most profoundly, ourselves. The experience of being wrong helps us to become better people. |
