Psychology For Today - Is Never Apologizing Good?

Sometimes we know people or we ourselves "never apologize" and even at time "double down" on what we think is right and correct. Is this a good thing?

It depends on the situation. Standing firm on your values and beliefs can show confidence and integrity, especially when you're well-informed and acting ethically. However, refusing to reconsider your stance or apologize when you're wrong can make you seem stubborn or unwilling to learn.

A better approach is to stay open to new information, acknowledge mistakes when necessary, and adapt when needed. Strength isn’t just about persistence—it’s also about knowing when to adjust and improve. When to listen and when to make changes.
