SEEK TRUTH
Don’t rely on tidbit sized soundbytes for your information. Conversly, don’t automatically assume everything broadcast in mainstream media is false. Do your homework, get your information from diverse sources, positions & mediums. Don’t assume sources are telling the truth, cross check their references and try to go for first hand information and/or position pieces.
Keep the scientific approach in mind; challenging & attemping to disprove your conclusions is the greatest tool in the pursuit of personal truth. Don’t be a yes-man, speak & debate those who oppose your viewpoints. Listen to them with an open mind. Don’t be rigid in argument or belief, test their facts & conclusions against your own.
The goal is not to be right, it is not even to find truth but rather the lifelong process of seeking it.
