Don’t put off or avoid tough conversations because you’re AFRAID of how your audience might react. Their reactions and refusal to listen, learn, and build trust with you is THEIR problem; NOT your problem.
When we’re about to have a hard conversation, we often worry about how the OTHER PERSON will react.
This does NOT serve us.
We cannot control other people. We can only control ourselves. We cannot choose how another person might respond or react to what we say. We can only choose and control the courage, confidence, competence, and bravery it takes to SAY IT.
