"Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens the mind of another"- Mishle 27:17

To be a "know it all" to arrogantly think that we have all the answers, that it is our way or the highway is testimony to a voluntarily dull mind.
As no matter how brilliant we may feel we are , we only have our perspective.
Even G-d who does not need us said “Let us make man in our image” (1:26)(where G-d "consulted" the angels)and immediately afterwards it is said “And G-d created man in His image"
So why the "Let us..." ? G-D does not need the opinion of anyone.I would suggest ,to teach us , among many other things, the value of dialogue , being open to hearing and learning from others ,from different perspectives .
For we are all different expressions of G-d on our unique journeys and learning from( not necessarily agreeing with) each other can widen our vision , broaden perspectives, reveal potential allow us to taste the delectable side of life that we may not have appreciated before.

This is achieved by preparing beforehand, putting your heart into it,showing the value you place on it .Then knowing when to slow down a little and pay attention to where your field of activity is , who your audience is , who or what you are dealing etc with thus making sure as they say" the cloth fits the table".Then you have the fertile ground on which to interact, to build, to develop, to achieve, to succeed in whatever you are doing and find in many case the results that once escaped you.
