Feynman set such a great example for me in terms of this: he never, ever accepted anything as reality without a preponderance of evidence, and he was always willing to reconsider his point of view if any new evidence or ideas were presented. In a nutshell, this is exactly how I try to live my life.
You can really see this in the video (it had the same title you mentioned when I first saw it too), where he talks himself into a different conclusion. You have to be pretty self-confident (and open!) to do that, I think.
