And it's a place that a lot of people get positioned at and they think, and I'd work it through.
So I'd do a kind of a role plan and say, let's say I'm in work.
I come to you, Brendan, I ask you for this.
And you say, no, what's the worst thing I would say?
And you'd say, well, that I'd go away to someone and say, God, that Brendan's so difficult.
He'd never helped.
So you're unhelpful.
That's the worst thing that you're difficult.
And we are all a mystery to each other.
But it's not your role to take that on.
And so that's my annoyance about the fact that you're not taking it off me.
Is it reasonably flat as well?
And so me labelling you as difficult is me.
Not stressed out, loving being there.
That's a me thing.
So why am I so fearful of me thinking you're difficult by you having a boundary?
Yeah, yeah.
So have you figured it out?
That is a shackle.
If we freed ourselves from that idea of being difficult, you know, or being, oh God, he's just, you know, unhelpful.
