Great leaders tell the truth.
They don't beat around the bush...
They don't sugarcoat shit...
They give you the raw, unfiltered truth…
No matter how harsh it may be.
They understand that by having these uncomfortable conversations with themselves and their team...
Everyone will get better.
...and even though some members of the team may think they're an asshole now...
They'll be thanking them down the line when they're kicking ass in life because of their honesty.
If you really want to help the people around you … and leave a legacy long after you're gone...
Quit trying to protect people's feelings by sparing them the truth.
Tell them what's real.
Even if it stings...
It's the right thing to do.
