It’s a learned skill. Once I realise I am wrong about something, admitting that is trivial. Coming to the conclusion you are wrong is also trivial on hard facts based things. But on emotional topics, that’s the real challenge. Admitting “I overreacted, sorry for lashing out”, as a prime example.

No, you don’t understand. I’m not talking about admitting it when you now realize you were wrong in the past.
I’m saying that some of the things you think you’re right about are things you’ll actually regret in the future.
It’s about having humility about even your deeply held beliefs.
