feeling that we have to say, hey, I don't want you to be offended by this. I don't want you to take this the wrong way. I don't want you to think I'm being rude, but, you use that word but, but just has a way of deleting everything you said before. Like, I love you, but I can't do this.

Whenever you say, I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but they will take it the wrong way. All they're doing is telling their system of, you should take this the wrong way. But when you tell them this phrase, when you begin the sentence with, you're probably going to take this the wrong way. In their mind, they go, no, I won't.

We are so wired in our brain to contradict what you're telling me. I will want to think the opposite. If somebody says this is going to be a really difficult problem or difficult conversation, we naturally go, no, it's not. I'm going to make sure you know that it's not. I'm going to want to disprove whatever you say. We love the contradictory. We love to correct people.

We love to prove that they're wrong. We like to show them that it's differently. And whenever you say, you're probably going to take this the wrong way, they naturally in their head think, no, I'm not. I'm not going to take it the wrong way because I'm going to prove you wrong that I'm not.

I promise you it works because it takes advantage of that natural reaction that we have to want to correct people and want to prove them wrong. When somebody says you can't do that, what's the first thing you think of when somebody says you can't? Oh, yes, I can. Just wait. Just watch. You will change your whole life trajectory if somebody says you can't do something just to prove them wrong.

Prove to them that you can. And sometimes it's yourself. I did this to prove myself that I can do this. It's funny how defiant we are.
