I am the result of the messaging drilled into women of my time.
‘Nice girls keep the peace’
So unhelpful in the work setting when you are basically lying to people by not telling them the truth.
It has taken me years and a lot of frustration to realise that sometimes the value I bring, is in making other people feel uncomfortable, even pissed off.
So, speak up, say what you are thinking and why. You are not wrong, ‘they’ are not wrong. It’s just different angles.
From today, promise yourself, I will say what I mean and absorb the response. Based on the evolution of the benefactor of your wisdom the results can sometimes be ugly! That’s on them, not you.
Who have you been talking about and not to, that you need to correct? Do it today!
