This is just how people should communicate with each other.  It&#x27;s polite, it invites others to be civil yet still argue with your point, and it doesn&#x27;t appear arrogant.<p>If I enter a conversation where I&#x27;m unsure how the audience will interpret my opinion, I&#x27;ll start by making sure everyone knows that I&#x27;m open minded, have an opinion, and have no expectation of others to have the same.<p>I&#x27;ll follow-up with my thoughts on the matter, and close by reassuring my audience that it&#x27;s just an opinion, I&#x27;d love to hear their arguments too, and yes, I AM confident in my views, but I&#x27;ve certainly been wrong in the past, so I&#x27;m all ears.
