Changing your mind in public is a flex most people can’t afford.

Admitting you were wrong in front of other people costs something, and most would rather defend a weak position than look unsteady. Holding a take you no longer believe is cheaper in the moment and expensive later. The ones who can update out loud usually have something steadier underneath than being right.

Pick one thing you argued for last month and no longer believe, and say so where you first said it. Keep it short, with no speech about growth attached. Watch how little it actually costs you.
