Feedback isn’t for them.

A present sitting on a mantel. Is it feedback?

Feedback Is a Gift

That’s what they say.

But it rarely feels like one.

Feedback usually shows up when something's off, a miss, a disappointment, a letdown.

So we wait.

We tell ourselves there’s time.

Tomorrow will be better.

Meanwhile, the issue grows. The details blur. And others start to notice, not just the problem, but that you’re not addressing it.

These moments don’t destroy culture. They define it.

“Honesty is an expensive gift. Don’t expect it from cheap people.”

If there’s a conversation you’re avoiding, that's your signal.

Have it.

Because feedback isn't just a gift for them.

It’s a mirror for you. A test of courage, clarity, and character.
