The best life and #career changing #advice I’ve received came to me unsolicited and abrasive. Smart, experienced, talented people telling me I suck at something, and why I suck so much at it.

The past decade has silenced most of this kind of feedback.

Including for those who might really use it and improve. It’s become culturally unacceptable to give advice before first being asked.

And then we wonder why there’s so much touchy-feely irresponsible #mediocrity around us… 🙄

If you think in terms of “I’m a bad girl / boy”, you’ll get into trouble quickly (stunted #career, inability to predict people and events, #depression)

Be more specific.

“I can’t control my anger” and “I’m too lazy to learn” — allow you to focus on specific areas to improve. 😉
