Being certain feels good. Being curious usually gets you closer to the truth.

Having made up your mind is comfortable, because it closes a question and lets you stop paying attention. Curiosity keeps the question open, which is less pleasant and considerably more accurate, since nothing new gets in through a closed mind. The trade is real: you give up the good feeling of having settled something in exchange for a better chance of being right.

Notice the next time you feel that satisfying click of having decided. Ask what would have to be true for the other side to make sense. You do not have to change your view, only keep the door open long enough to look.
