Hardheaded
Are you hardheaded? The following test may help you decide.
1. Do you always want everything your way?
2. Do you refuse to listen to other opinions?
3. Do you have a hard time changing your mind?
4. Do other people call you stubborn? Worse, do they call you stubborn as a mule?
People have different levels of stubbornness or hardheadedness. Some are hardheaded about everything all the time. Others are a little hardheaded part-time.
Strong opinions can be helpful. Presidents and other leaders must stand firm on certain issues. At the same time, they must be willing to listen to all sides of any issue. That was true for the presidents carved on Mt. Rushmore. It remains true for leaders today.
A great plan for both leaders and followers: Listen well. Decide carefully.
“They have become as hardheaded as a rock. They refuse to change their ways” (Jeremiah 5:3 NET).
