Stubbornness is the pass of the stubborn, prejudice is the sophistry of the biased.

In life and work, we often meet such people, and sometimes we explain it in another way, which is “axis”.

What’s more terrible is that every time I encounter such a person, not only waste more time to communicate and explain with the other party, it is even more embarrassing that the other party has not changed and improved much after speaking, and then continue to maintain the status quo, No wonder Kant said:

The lesson human beings have learned from history is that human beings never remember historical lessons.

Once the world of adults has become closed, news has become lagging, and vision has become narrow, it must be followed by mentality and self-restraint and resistance to avoidance. Over time, there is no interest in everything. Not to mention change.

I know, but I do n’t change.

Yes, I know everything you say, but I just do n’t change it.

Nothing changes, which means that we want to maintain the status quo. However, the ultimate proposition of the world is change and development, and this is how gaps and generation gaps arise.

Stubborn people ca n’t talk about how bad they are, but many times they ignore the nature of things:

It’s like a praying mantis waving its forearm to stop the wheel of the world. It is doomed to fail.

A psychologist once did an experiment and found a group of people. Among them were those who supported the death penalty and some who opposed it. Then they read a material about the deterrent effect of the death penalty.

In fact, this material is about whether the death penalty has a deterrent effect, under what circumstances, and under what circumstances. The material itself does not have much tendency.

But after reading these two groups of people, it turned out that:

People who support the death penalty have expressed greater support for the death penalty, and those who oppose the death penalty are even more opposed to the death penalty, and they all claim that this material provides them with reliable evidence.

People most likely only want to see what they want to see, and only believe what they want to believe.

This rejection of information, or even a distortion, can be defined as a psychologically conservative tendency, that is, a tendency to ignore,

Even misinterpreting information that contradicts your original point of view, and does not change, or changes your original point of view very slowly.

It’s not difficult to understand this way
