text: You may have your own opion on a topic. But if you listen to other peoples opions on the topic they might change your prospective because you may have never thought about it in that way. An example for me is, i was writing a paper about if basketball players deserve how much money they make. My first opion was yes but after i was finished talking to others about the topic my opion changed. Another example is maybe you are having a hard time in a friendship and you need advice on what to do talking to others can help you make the right decision for you.
