Its wrong to be right. Being right is based upon knowledge and experience and is often provable. Knowledge comes from the past, so its safe. It is also out of date. Irs the opposite of originality. Experience is built from solutions to old situations and problems. The old situations are probably different from the present ones, so that old solutions will have to be bent to fit new problems ( and possibly fit badly ). Also the likelihood is that, if youve got the experience , youll probably use it. This is lazy. Experience is the opposite of being creative. If you can prove youre right youre set in concrete. You cannot move with the times or with other people. Being right is also being boring. Your mind is closed. Your not open to new ideas. You are rooted in your own rightness, which is arrogant. Arrogance is a valuable tool,, but only if used very sparingly. Worst of all , being right has a tone to morality about it. To be anything else sounds weak or fallible ,and people who are right would hate to be thought fallible. So, its wrong to be right ,because people who are right are rooted in the past, rigid - minded , dull and smug. Theres no taking to them . X ___________________________________ meg.
