“"I never think of what I have said before. My aim is not to be consistent with my previous statements on a given question, but to be consistent with truth as it may present itself to me. The result has been that I have grown from truth to truth."” – —Mahatma Gandhi
Consistency is only beneficial as long as the truth to which we are holding remains true.

When we hold to something because "that's the way we've always done it," even when a new truth is staring us in the face, our culture, relationships, and society stagnate.
There is nothing wrong with changing your mind as you learn new information.
Be wise and grow.
