Do you have an obsessive need to be right? All. The. Time?

Me, too. :)

If there’s one thing that kills relationships faster than anything, it’s that…The need to be right. All. The. Time.

An alternative?

How about not needing to be right?

Getting caught up in the web of righteousness? Let’s pause. SEE ourselves falling into our habit of “being right” and see if we can’t take a more spacious perspective—one that allows for differences in how others see the world.

Ahhhhhh…

THAT is a nice place to be.

You can still passionately express yourself (God forbid if we stopped doing that!) but check your intention: are you trying to prove you’re right (codeword for proving you’re smarter than someone else) or are you trying to grow and learn more about yourself and the world?

Let’s rock it!

(And, wish me luck, please. :)
