Dimostrazione is a commitment to test knowledge through experience, persistence, and a willingness to learn from mistake. The finest teachers know that experience is the source of wisdom. And the principle of Dimostrazione is the key to making the most of your experience.

Here are some ways to apply Dimostrazione:

1. Check your belief and sources. Determine the dominant source of your information. See if you hold any beliefs for which you have no experiential verification.

2. Three points of view -
Try making the strongest possible argument against your belief. Try reviewing your belief “from a distance” (for instance, as if you lived in a different country). Seek out friends who might offer different perspectives.

3. Practice internal anticommercial martial arts - Go through your favorite magazine and analyze the strategy and tactics of each advertisement. Note which advertisements affect you most strongly and why.

4. Learn from “anti-role models”. Make a list of at least three people who have made mistakes that you would like to avoid. How can you learn from their mistakes?
