We need to devote as much time to rethinking as we do to thinking. While we refresh our wardrobes and renovate our kitchens, we often neglect to update our beliefs and views. Many of us fall into the trap of mental laziness, clinging to outdated opinions formed years ago. In a rapidly changing world, it's crucial to embrace the practice of rethinking. This book emphasizes the value of doubt and the joy of being wrong. Research indicates that creative geniuses are flexible in their identities and willing to reconsider their positions, while leaders who acknowledge their uncertainties and seek feedback foster more innovative teams. Rethinking is a mindset and skill set that can be cultivated, and the author outlines how to develop these qualities. The first section examines the challenges we face in rethinking and how to overcome them, arguing that mere 'grit' can be counterproductive. The second section focuses on fostering rethinking in others through 'argument literacy.' The final section critiques how schools, businesses, and governments often fail to create cultures that promote rethinking. Ultimately, mastering the skill of rethinking may provide a vital advantage in an ever-evolving world.
