Truth, Ambition, and Openness Make People Uncomfortable
Why you shouldn’t give af
People are scared of the truth. It terrifies them.
So much so that they would rather live in misery than be honest with themselves and others.
Instead, they spend enormous energy hiding behind a facade, pretending that life is going well and “keeping up appearances.”
Inside, they are exhausted, frustrated, directionless, and sad.
But here’s the kicker…
They aren’t just scared of their truths; they are afraid of YOURS.
Why?
Because you are open about your truth, it makes them terrified of facing their own.
Your openness and honesty intimidate them, and they may even lash out at you, but it’s never about you.
It’s about their own insecurities.
