Great post, Nick. You write about the messy middle we humans live in, and my favorite part here highlights this. Your advice, as I interpret it, is to say it, even if it's messy, knowing you might lose them, but the people who truly care about you will come back; just give them time, as you are both ends of the same control hook. This gives you and them a reset button. It took me decades to learn this.
Thank you so much Andrew, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! This also took me decades to figure out. Your interpretation is spot on. It's so worth it when we can give this type of freedom to those we care about.
