    My wife asked me to stop worrying about whether I was right, and instead focus on being helpful. Changing the way your mind works is quite difficult, but in cases like these, worth doing.

        Very much.

        Taken to extremes, “it doesn’t matter if you are right that we shouldn’t stomp puppies, but you need to stop focusing on whether you’re right and focus on being helpful to us”

        I’m intentionally blowing it up to hilight how ridiculous it can be.
