Current antagonism may have less to do with your beliefs and more to do with the way you’re presenting them. Lighten up and others become receptive.
Take a head count of how many people you’re fighting with. If it’s more than three, rethink your approach.
Careful with the running commentary because what you say today could be used against you later. You don’t want a sound bite to come back and bite you in the derriere.
You may have to bend the rules to help out a friend today. It’s OK as long as you make sure to bend them back again when you’re done.
Stop, look, and listen. You’ve gotten a bit close-minded lately and are overreacting to criticisms. Friends are on your side.
You can do better. Keep reciting this like a daily mantra and you’ll recognize the opportunity when it materializes.
