This is really insightful and well presented, Jeff. "Done correctly, tough conversations will actually increase the amount of respect people have for you." If only we could remember that and pursue it courageously, while also committing to "done correctly."
Love the images you found and added to your piece.

You are right, it requires conscious effort to force yourself to have the tough conversations. But it’s like any muscle. You’re not gonna get six-pack abs by avoiding core workouts. And it’s really hard to start doing core workouts. It’s uncomfortable and frustrating. But if you maintain consistency and continually try to improve….
There was a hidden agenda in my response. I haven’t done any core exercises in too many years. It’s gotten out of control. So right after I left that response, I did a 10 minute core workout and committed to doing that at least three times this week.

Thank you so much for the comment.

Excellent, visual analogy. That makes perfect sense. You gotta do the work.
Hahaha. 💥

So thank you.
Look what evolved. Some random communication, Jeff's response and now, back at "work" with his core workout. Another "win" for the day.
