I want them gone.

However, as a journalist, I often had to deal with them in my clinic.

on the air.

I survived it by getting as close to those problems as I could and studying them like samples in a Petri dish.

In other words, I had to shift from neutrality to objectivity.

And no, they're not the same.

Objectivity is just when you park your emotions and learn without judgment.

I don't have to like it, I'm just here to learn from it.

Neutrality negates your opinions as if you have no judgments.

Now, notice I said park your opinions.

When you park your car, you don't abandon it in the garage.

You're coming back for it.

So you can choose when to focus inward on what you think or outward on what you can learn.

Of course, sometimes your car ain't where you left it, and maybe your opinions will move too.

That maybe is why objectivity feels so vulnerable.

That's why it works.

That vulnerability is a sign of openness, and a conversation that's not open is pointless.

But if you can stay open, amazing things can happen.
