Fluid with ideas, rigid with values
Ideas come and go, values are forever
When we conjure up exceptional ideas, we tend to become fixated on those ideas. We become attached, and dogmatic. "I thought of this great idea, that seems to solve this particular problem, so it must be right." This causes tunnel vision, it tends to close you off to other more productive ways of thinking.
So it's important to remember, you are not your ideas or your beliefs. They are a byproduct of you. It's the culmination of timing, past experiences, skill, perspective, and luck.
Let's try to be fluid with ideas and beliefs and rigid in our values and vision. Hold on to ideas that are serving your vision but be free enough to let them go. If you're in sync with your truest values, your ideas and beliefs will tend to serve you better.
