2. Learn.
One of the best things you can do is to continue learning new things. Keep your mind open to everything. Even if it's something you don't agree with, you can always learn from it. By listening to something you don't agree with, you either change your way of thinking or strengthen how you feel about something. By talking with people, we see things from different points of view and broaden our horizons. We see how other people have been raised and how they think, then we choose whether to live the same way or not. But, regardless, we learn something from everyone we meet and every new thing we do. Learn how girls think or how another culture views your religion. All of this will either show your fault in your logic or enforce that you have made the right decision.
