Let’s act like you don’t make the same mistake you’re judging me for? 🤨
Imagine my African dad screaming at me like he saw a ghost — because I woke up late for church on a Sunday morning. Throwing “if I were you” jabs at me.
Fine, I was talking to the love of my life all night long and sleep didn’t want me to sleep. (Oh yes! — I did that 😜).
Things we do for love. Right?
You won’t believe what happened next.
This man woke up extremely late the following Sunday and was as mute as a damaged Apple earpiece.
There I was — patiently waiting for him to scream at himself.
Would you believe this man didn’t? — SMH!!
I would have been the elderly one and screamed at his oversleeping-unfair-ass but I couldn’t risk carrying a placard on my chest that says;
Thinking other people are not different humans, but they’re YOU — is not always helpful.
Because you’re not me! — And vice versa.
“If I were you…” — is a trap if you assume you’re the only one who’s right.

He will definitely not scream at himself. You know why?
...because the hardest leadership challenge is leading oneself. Everyone wants comfort. No one wants to be talked at... So?
You write so well. I like it.
