"...start with your detractors and work upwards through their claims to see if there is any merit. If after a thorough search, you cannot find a reasonable and logical rebuttal to what you propose, then maybe what you believe has some truth." - @drivelinebaseball, article on WEIGHTED BASEBALLS, SAFETY, AND CONSEQUENCES Check it out! http://bit.ly/1Syl0KF Confirmation bias hard at work here. Totally cherry picked this quote but it perfectly encapsulates one of philosophies and approaches I try to employ in my life. This often times is frustrating to many people, including my friends because we are naturally inclined to seek out people who agree with us. To counter our confirmation bias we should do as one of the greatest coaches of all time advised "surround yourself with smart people who will argue with you." - John Wooden #confirmationbias #baseball #drivelinebaseball #philosophy #scientificapproach
