Truth telling is important but it requires tact, something I lacked when I was younger.

The truth is often so powerful and destabilizing that the manner in which you deliver it is of equal importance to the truth delivered.

Basically you’re performing an inception on someone. You have to make people think they came to the truth on their own.

If you come on too strong they will reject it outright.

So true! I have learned that you cannot speak the truth and be kind at the same time, most of the time people don't want to hear the truth.

But if the person you're talking to, it's one that you care the most, sometimes you have to take the risk.
