    Personally, we get to learn that first impressions are not always accurate, which can be considered a life skill. For example, when Singaporeans first heard of the term "recycled water", their first impression was that NEWater was dirty, and disgusting, upon learning its history. However, some of them, after trying NEWater, and also gaining more knowledge about how it is purified, they change their perceptions and accept it.
