Major Dangers of the Need To Be Right All the
Time
Arrogant certainty
attends a line of thought which though correct
in itself may have started from wrong premises.
An incorrect idea
which would have led to a correct idea (or
useful experimentation) is chocked off at too
early a stage if it cannot itself be justified.
It is assumed that
being right is enough ‒ an adequate arrangement
blocks the possibility of a better arrangement.
The importance
attached to being right all the time breeds the
inhibiting fear of making mistakes.
