Embed Notice

Sometimes, after a little time has passed, I can more clearly see my own contribution to whatever was causing the annoyance.

Then I can apologise for my own contribution (if there's something I should apologise for) and discuss any remaining issues more constructively & less defensively.

But it doesn't feel ideal, I don't want to be deceptive or avoid difficult conversations when they need to happen.

It also makes a difference if it's work colleagues or friends or family.
