Teachability

Who would you rather have listening to you?

Someone who is easily swayed, who will shift their opinion without too much effort?

Or someone stubborn, who doesn't give up their ways of thinking quickly and causes frustration?

My natural instinct is towards the shifters. Less argument, more like-mindedness.

But I've been blessed to interact with a number of the stubborns in the last couple of days. The stubborns test you along the way and when (if?) you win them over, they're more useful.
