According to Howard Gardner (2006), there are 3 conditions required to acquire disciplinary modes of thinking to encourage people to change the way they think:

i) regularly and systematically confront any misconceptions

ii) individuals need to absorb themselves deeply in examples, such as specific scientific theories, historical examples, works of art, etc

iii) be willing to approach a topic in the number of different ways

Furthermore, this involves having

"...the patience to conduct routine business routinely, the talent to respond exceptionally to exceptional circumstances, and the wisdom to know the difference between the two..."
