In this short video, trial attorney Jefferson Fisher shares a concise framework for becoming more open‑minded. He emphasizes that one can listen to another’s opinion without having to share or immediately disagree with it. Fisher argues that curiosity is the key: treat others’ viewpoints as a painting to be appreciated, and ask probing questions (e.g., where they learned the idea, how long it took, whether it was self‑discovered or taught) rather than assuming you already know the full picture. By adopting this curious, non‑judgmental listening style, viewers can broaden their perspective and improve their communication and argumentation skills.

How to be more open-minded. My name is Jefferson Fisher. I'm a trial attorney and I teach people how to argue and communicate. Now, I don't know if anybody's told you this, but you can listen to another person's opinion without having to share your own. Just because theirs is different doesn't mean you have to disagree. My nose looks different than your nose. My heart beats different than your heart. So why would my brain think different than your brain? The key to being more open-minded is to be more curious. Think of their opinions as them painting a picture. Learn to appreciate it by asking questions like, Where did you learn that? How long did it take you? Did you find this yourself, or did somebody teach you? And don't assume you know the full picture when they're just getting started. And that's how you get to be more open-minded. So try that and follow me.
