Why is it important to consider things from one's point of view?

Because one point view always has the best decision and sees it best

Hi. It is important to consider things from one's point of view because that is how we learn, not only as an individual but as a society.

For example, let's say I am hired to design a logo (I am a graphic designer), so do I design the logo based on what I like or do I give the client what they want? In order for me to be successful, I had to learn that there is always two perceptions about any topic.

In my business, I have to listen to what my client's perceptions are in order to better meet their needs. Now that doesn't mean that I can't offer my opinion because I do, that is part of my job. By me sharing my point of view, the client's learns something about how design works. On the flip-side, I too learn something about them, their company, etc.

I know it is hard sometimes to consider someone else's point of view, particularly if you are adamant about your point of view but when you learn to consider a different theory then your own, you are actually allowing yourself to gain additional knowledge and you might look at the things in a different perspective.

I hope this helps a little. 

Take care,
