It's not a Debate || a five minute prompt
Thinking you are better than others and smarter too can be a major factor in limiting your knowledge and therefore your growth. This is because you meet every talk or advice with an excuse or a point to tackle what is being said, even if you were wrong.
It is like a shield you put up to counter anything that comes your without even considering if it is for your own good. Every small talk is like a battlefield, arguments here and there. It is the debating every single time, and you forget that life is not a debate.
In life we learn and grow, especially from others. Trying to be smart on your own can hinder your growth. It's not always about you, everything is not a debate. Try to listen first, then make decisions later. It'll really help you.

I think what you’ve written holds immense value. Let me share that I’m a psychiatrist, and my father is also a physician—with far more experience than I have. He always warned me that arrogance can cause serious harm to patients, even fatal outcomes. I’ve deeply internalized his lessons, and I’d like to illustrate this with a case where I misjudged a clinical situation.
In my practice, I frequently prescribe typical antipsychotics (or neuroleptics) for major psychiatric disorders, though they carry risks like muscle hypertonia. Years ago, I treated a patient who required both neuroleptics and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Post-ECT, he developed jaw swelling, which I assumed was hypertonia—until a nursing assistant with 30 years’ experience respectfully suggested: "Doctor, I’ve seen jaw dislocations after ECT. This could be similar."
Another physician might’ve dismissed this due to intellectual pride, but I listened. An X-ray confirmed the dislocation, and maxillofacial specialists resolved it. I thanked the assistant, never viewing their input as a threat to my authority. This benefited the patient most—and became a pivotal lesson for me.
Your post perfectly echoes this truth. Thank you for sharing these insights—it was a pleasure to read.
