Couldn't agree more. Fear of rocking the boat, mountains out of molehills, etc. just end up making you weak and weak ends up making one not all that attractive. You think you're doing good by not stirring up stuff, but in the end its way way worse than you could imagine.
One thing I've learned recently is trying to letting go of all attachment to outcome. When you think of outcome first, you're not doing for you, but others. I'm not saying to ignore others, but thinking of outcome makes you more walk on eggshells than just being.
Of course, this is all in my head and haven't really put into production, but we're warming it up buttercup!!!
Best of luck Jim.
