Beautiful. Simply asking yourself what could be contributing to this behavior rather than jumping to correcting the behavior has helped me so much. I’m guilty of looking for acute fixes opposed to using moments as opportunity for learning.

Been working with my five year old son on the importance of showing others respect. Looking people in the eye, verbally acknowledging requests, and other related social interactions. It all boils down to confidence and comfort with others. I’m ensuring I set the example and then discuss opportunities with him prior to or after social engagements to encourage learning. Mainly trying to boost his confidence elsewhere, especially around others, and hoping that will translate to more confidence in this domain.

Great stuff brother

Confidence is a primary leadership trait…we will need more maturing leaders moving forward to shift the tides in a favorable direction for us all…as the future unfolds…😌🫶
