Advice for robust extroverts

If and when you are ever accused of being disrespectful and dominating then remember this;

all such opinions are subjective.

I can prove this because I know a person that some people find disrespectful and dominating and I don’t find that person either disrespectful or dominating.

This is not to say that a person can’t actually be disrespectful and dominating but more to point out that there’s a grey area where accusations relating to these characteristics are more a reflection of the sensitive & introverted nature of the folks making the accusations.

It’s great to have empathy for sensitive folks but you can’t spend your whole life tip-toeing around people with ‘large feet’ (as the Dutch say); you can go mad.

The right answer is to spend a little time around sensitive and introverted people so you have that experience and can deal with them on a case-by-case basis when needs be, and then go and find a bunch of extroverted high-energy types that challenge you on a daily basis in a very robust fashion.
