Listen to understand, not to defend is something I remind myself of all the time! This Gen Xer loves your reminder too!

I love that advice. And you’re barely Gen X!

This is a great reminder that gaining understanding creates an environment of mutual respect for generational uniqueness. This is also true with people in general. When we understand, we can see from a different, perhaps more accepting lens. Great thought for the upcoming week.

That’s right Patrick. It’s much easier to take an us vs. them approach, but each of us is human and dealing with things no one else knows about.
