Val, I think you did a fine job. You stood up for yourself. She didn’t get what she wanted and left the conversation. Yeah you may have given more information than you wanted to. So what, nobody’s perfect. Give yourself a break.

Every encounter will have pluses and minuses. Acknowledge both of them. Learn from both of them. The purpose of a project review is to share what went right, and what could we do better next time? There will be a next time.

We hear the mantra “no expectations”. Rarely is this achieved. We feel what we feel. So accepting that we’ll have some expectations or some level of expectation we should not beat ourselves when they were not met. Honestly what level of control do we have over the outcome?

We can control how we act, and what we do with the experience of the outcome.

They are going to get p!ssy about something particularly when something doesn’t go their way. Don’t let it affect you.

In a very real sense we are fighting for ourselves, sometimes with ourselves.
