Think about the last time you dealt with someone you were trying really hard to be professional with.
Despite multiple miscommunications on their part — and what was clearly laziness, apathy, and them mailing it in — you kept trying to be the adult.
You kept overcompensating for their lack of effort.
You kept telling yourself, “Hold yourself to a higher standard.”
But it’s still getting you nowhere.
You want to lose it.
You want to let them have it.
But you hesitate — because everything in leadership and communication says “keep your cool.”
So the question becomes:
At what point does that restraint stop helping and start hurting?
At what point are you completely justified in going old-school — 1950s dad style — and giving someone a full-on ass-chewing?
What You’ll Learn:
•How to recognize when it’s time to stop playing nice and start holding the line
•A real-world filter to help you decide when to confront someone directly
•Why giving someone the business doesn’t mean losing your professionalism
•How to hit someone with hard truth — without losing your message or your control
Why It Matters:
If you lead, coach, manage, or parent — this will give you a concrete decision-making lens for high-friction moments. You’ll stop second-guessing yourself when someone needs to be checked, and you’ll know how to do it in a way that’s firm, clear, and productive.
