Years of experience have taught you that a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down. This helps to digest news that’s hard to take.
You’ve reached the point where you can’t bend over backwards anymore. Ironically this brings you and the other party back together.
Someone’s uncertain, but you don’t want to lock in a commitment only to create resentment. Let this person approach you when they’re ready.
Sharing credit doesn’t guarantee that you and an associate will receive equal billing. Make sure you don’t get pushed out of the spotlight.
Avoid confrontations even if you’re right. Smoothing over ruffled feathers is the way to go.
Seek the advice of a trusted friend because you’re losing the forest for the trees. You’ll find that their no-nonsense approach gets you out of the weeds.
