Challenge your assumptions, beliefs, and ideas about things.  So many times we (I do this too) come to conclusions based upon so much little data and only a small viewpoint of the world in which we live.

In other words:  our eyes deceive us because we don’t know what to look for, don’t know HOW to look at things objectively, and we analyze things based on such small amounts of data.

We jump to conclusions, and then let these conclusions define ourselves, our lives, our beliefs, our goals, and more.

This is why first impressions are so important because people make a decision based upon a little amount of “data” and then generally decide if they like the person for a long period of time.

It is REALLY hard to overcome these first impressions.
