You can challenge people without disrespecting them.
Too many people confuse accountability with being âmeanâ because theyâve become addicted to playing victim instead of taking ownership. You should absolutely be respectful, but that does not mean you avoid hard conversations or lower standards to protect feelings.
Weâve evolved because people are becoming more self-aware. They know their strengths, they understand their personalities, and theyâre learning to double down on what they do exceptionally well instead of obsessing over weaknesses.
The old mindset was to constantly fix what youâre bad at. The new mindset is to maximize what youâre elite at and build around it, thatâs where confidence comes from, and thatâs where growth comes from.
