This is how we deal with resistance:

- we usually believe opponents are missing facts, so all we need is to supply information - but we are not designed to react to data, we don't make decisions based on facts - we usually have a "confirmation bias" wiki - if somebodey challenges our ideas, we work harder to prove our view -> "backfire effect".

# The Big Problem with Patterns

- three known uses or just because something is being used, doesn't mean it works -> we must include more science experiments - we .... ADD - be prepared to be wrong But, yes "It can be learned and then practiced."
