Hard A** Conversations

Damn. 

I had a Hard A**Conversation tonight. 

Grrr. 

It was for work. 

And it was tough. 

And I didn't want to have to have it. 

But...

The Conversation needed to be had. 

It's tough. 

Being honest. 

And delivering information that you know won't be taken well. 

But...

You do it. 

Bc...

Your life is as big as the Hard Conversations you are willing to have. 

Want a small life? 

Don't have hard convos. 

Want a BIG A** life? 

Have the hard convo. 

When it was happening tonight, I saw she wanted to cry. And made me feel the same. I was holding back tears while delivering the truth. It SUCCCCCKKKED.

Like hard. 

And she was trying to cancel it all day long and reschedule in hopes of conditions changing. I wouldn't let her. We had to get it out in the open. I told her we have to know all the facts of where we were, where we are, where we are going. To create an actionable plan. 

It's BS to act like the bad didn't happen or is going away. 

It takes Character and Courage to forge ahead into the sh*tty zone of delivering bad news to people we care about. 

But...

Who are you gonna choose to be?!?

Big.

Small. 

What kinda life do you want to be?

Today, When was your last Hard A** Conversation?!!

Grrr. 

I feel your pain.

Are you glad you had it?

Wish you didn't have to?!

Relieved even?!?

Man...

It's not easy making the hard choices. 

But...

The alternative of playing small sucks far more. 

How big will you choose to live your life?!?
