As each of us reads this post we will, generally, all define ourselves as the voice and relegate those who disagree with our stance as the echos.

The article is true... without a doubt.

How it affects each of us will, unfortunately, be defined on how we view ourselves and it is most often human nature that we view ourselves in the light of right and few there be that can change that concept of ourselves.

So... in the end... we pat each other on the back and go home.
Digger,

In the Leadership Class I taught last night, one of the things I dealt with was the fact that if one would be a leader, he must first demonstrate his ability to lead--read change--himself.

In order to do that, it requires a brutal self-honesty that few are capable of.

You just about have to have people in your life who will shoot straight with you if you you are going to be able to do it.

Most of us are far more willing to be ruined by praise than we are to be saved by criticism.
