Playing Fair and Being Kind

Here is a short segment of what I have learned from Neeley. She lives in California, so I don’t get to see her much at all. I hope we are still friends.
Peace out,

“Our biases are so strongly burned into our existence, they become a part of our unconscious and influence how we navigate our every day lives and decision-making.
Our own biases cannot be properly recognized without first making the conscious choice to truthfully investigate ones own biases and beliefs. This requires more than a little self-reflection over the course of an afternoon. Instead, it is more like a marathon – one that can take weeks, months, years, even a lifetime to complete.
But this conscious choice to run this internal mental marathon is the pillar for critical thinking. Without making this conscious choice to undertake this marathon of self-investigation one can never truly see the external world with logical or rational thinking. Without running this marathon you are missing the foundation in ability to think critically.”
