I WAS WRONG,
I AM WRONG !
It is wonderful to discover that we are wrong.
It is a major step, if not the only step, to learning, and to our personal progress.
Disillusionment is mostly thought of as a negative, uncomfortable experience. It is NOT. Being disillusioned is a step in the RIGHT direction. It is the removal of a former illusion, one that we may have held for many years. Any temporary discomfort is soon replaced with a better, but not-yet-perfect, view of reality.
The book and concept of “Psycho Cybernetics” (Maxwell Maltz, 1960) correctly proposes that 'Negative feedback is more Positive than positive feedback'. Negative feedback allows us to change our direction and to choose a better, more certain path to an important or complex goal. Positive feedback is neutral, it doesn't even confirm to us that our instruments... or our brains… are still working.
If your image of life today is the same as it was yesterday, there is a good chance that either:1) you are still asleep, or 2) that you have died and no one has yet been kind enough to inform you.
