Having more than one perspective on something can benefit us in the long run. Many times in many situations there are multiple ways and decisions we can choose, ultimately we choose our own. It’s not always the best choice but it’s usually what happens. It is very important to be able to look at things from the other person’s perspective because even though we would like to always be right we can’t.

Many times in our life we encounter countless situations where it is us against someone else. No matter how hard they try and get us to realize that we might be wrong, we still fight against it. If everyone could sit down and realize that viewing things from a different perspective could actually benefit us, it could take us so far. It will allow people to help other people with their problems and many other things. An important part of life is realizing that you might not always be right. Also in a way it betters us as people and people value us more.

With all that being said, being able to view things from a different person’s perspective is very helpful. Once people are able to do that you have accomplished a good step in life. Take the time and think every situation out and before arguing, and understand that you should look at it from the other persons view. Listen and understand why they are saying what they are. Eventually it will benefit you.
