I am really irritated with someone. I need to have a hard conversation and I’m looking for the grace of understanding, which is basically to say I wonder how can I use my gifts to empower this person instead of sabotaging the conversation?
I don’t want to shame him. He’s younger and I want to frame it as a learning opportunity for him. My anger is coming from a place of it’s all about me and he did me wrong, and I know what he did was a mistake. As his mentor, I know it’s my responsibility to use it as a learning opportunity, but that takes work on my part and I need to craft my thoughts. Anyway, I called my friend to ask for some advice. I explained there was no malice intended. I think he should have done something that he didn’t do.
Friends say I live my life out loud. That’s because I’m a curious, adventurous person and, as an appreciator, I simply love to share what lights me up. Consider this is your invitation into my fun, multi-faceted world.
