Think Again by Adam Grant

Book:
“We learn more from people who challenge our thought process than those who affirm our conclusions. Strong leaders engage their critics and make themselves stronger. Weak leaders silence their critics and make themselves weaker. This reaction isn’t limited to people in power. Although we might be on board with the principle, in practice we often miss out on the value of a challenge network.”
Note:
Surround yourself with those who challenge your views. Constructive criticism is key to personal growth and effective leadership. Embrace it to become stronger and wiser.

Book:
“Thinking like a scientist involves more than just reacting with an open mind. It means being actively open-minded. It requires searching for reasons why we might be wrong—not for reasons why we must be right—and revising our views based on what we learn.”
Note:
True learning requires questioning your beliefs. Approach life with curiosity and a willingness to be proven wrong. This mindset fosters growth and innovation.

Book:
“How do you know? It’s a question we need to ask more often, both of ourselves and of others. The power lies in its frankness. It’s nonjudgmental—a straightforward expression of doubt and curiosity that doesn’t put people on the defensive.”
Note:
Curiosity drives deeper understanding. Regularly question assumptions, both yours and others', to uncover truth and foster open, honest dialogue.
