How many times have you heard someone say, “Only if you listen, you would understand”?
More often than not, we think we know better. On the positive sides of things, sometimes, we are just so excited, and want to share what we know.

We keep saying “we need new blood”, and when we hire new blood, we transfer old blood type “B Negative” to them. It doesn’t make sense.
As humans, we tend to react to situations, specially the heated ones, based on our own perceptions and assumptions, we tend to believe what our brains tell us rather than believe what really happened. We behave in an instinctive reactive mode, rather than a rational proactive mode.
