In your efforts to be fair to everyone you could be shortchanging the people who went beyond the call of duty. They shouldn’t be penalized for being exceptional.
Collaborations are living, breathing entities. Don’t worry if you and a partner don’t always see eye-to-eye. Bridging differences is the creative part.
You may be right, but it’s the wrong time. Don’t force others to adopt your outlook before they’re ready to.
Stop repeating the same reasons for why you can’t move forward. You’re not saying anything new. Yet acting in your own best interests would be something different.
You’re a natural devil’s advocate, but that’s not who you are all the time. Let someone see your more angelic side.
You won’t be able to finalize plans, but you can still sketch them in lightly for now. This may even work to your advantage.
