there are times in my life when i have to deal with people who, for whatever reason, let me know pretty clearly that i am "sub-" to their sense of "excellence". and no, this isn't a "low self-esteem" reaction on my part...it's a strange but real interaction...in a couple of cases. weird, but true. and for whatever reason...usually because of a need i've had to "please" (barf!)...i've worked my @ss off to "measure up".
but you know what?
those people are never going to ask for any other side to the story. any more information. more detail. other perspectives. they are never going to allow you to fly above their ceiling or push beyond their boxes.
you know why?
in their mind...they don't need to. they actually think they are the top brass. and by the way, they also know it all.
so...stop striving to measure up to their expectations. you never will.
instead...clock out for the day. check out of that room and toss the key. take a vacation. and be fine with who you really are.
