Normalise being wrong. Normalise admitting to mistakes and changing your opinion as you learn more. It's how we learn. It's part of being human.

I like to be proven wrong, and to have my thinking changed. I'm happy to have found a lot of people who are capable of doing that in the last few years.

You have to be very careful though, because skepticism needs to be applied at all times as well. There are lots of people out there whose sole purpose is to try to deceive you into thinking in a way that's useful for them. Therefore, you should be supple enough to be open to new ideas and new information, but strong enough to push back against blindly and stupidly believing anything that's presented to you without question.
