Say what you mean!
Say what you mean!
Let your YES be Yes, and NO be NO. If you like something say you like something. If you don’t like something say you don’t like something.
I have heard people trying to sugarcoat their critisim and feedback by saying something like, “Oh, i like the way you … bla bla bla… BUT perhaps you could … bla bla bla.“.
That’s dumb. You are insincere.
After a while, no one will take what you say seriously. As soon as people hear your “I like the way you...” they will stop listening. EVEN if you mean it, no one trust you anymore.
Have some guts, stick by what you say, don’t have to sugarcoat your words! Say what you really think, make your words count. If you want to praise, just praise whole heartedly. If you wanna give critisim, feedback, then give it. Then people will value what you say.
