Why is it that Some People Can Never Admit They're Wrong?
1. Fragile ego. They feel threatened, weak or dumb by the person pointing out their mistake. This activates the fight-or-flight response, and they choose to fight back. So by refusing to admit they are wrong,their ego protects them from feeling insecure or inadequate..
2. Mental Rigidity. They have a hard time seeing another person’s perspective. We sometimes refer to this as having mental rigidity. They assume their perspective is correct and that there is only one “right way” of doing things. If they are challenged with the idea that they are wrong, they’ll have a hard time entertaining a different way of thinking.
3. They’re Oblivious. When someone is not self-aware or introspective, they may not even understand the mistake they are making. And if they don’t understand where you are coming from, they’re not likely to admit errors.
So next time you see someone have a hard time admitting they’re wrong, see if you can figure out which one of these three is the reason!
