Man, you saved my confidence🙏🙏🌱🌱
Excellent advice. I’ve been accused of being a narcissist moments before being told I’m crazy and need professional help. This happens most every time I disagree with one particular person. I’ve not heard it from anyone else. I guess I was nuts for thinking that the truth would prevail if I kept on trying to convince them. It’s a relief to know that’s never going to happen, and I can save my breath. Thank you!!
Oh yes. Yes, yes, yes! You're a rock star. Looking for your book.
