basketball analogy time... =)
as a (volunteer) coach, one of the things i often have to correct is making lob passes (slow, often misplaced and disrupting of the flow of action). some kids mistakenly believe they are being nice by giving their teammate a soft pass, but i tell them the kind thing to do is making the direct pass. it gets the ball there faster, it's more likely to be in stride, and makes it harder for the defense to recover or steal. that means it's more likely to lead to a basket and less likely to lead to a turnover for the receiving teammate.
(tl;dr: direct is better and more appreciated than roundabout)
- BenchRouter 9y agoWe're not disagreeing. Allen's feedback is direct, to me. What's indirect about it?
- clairity 9y agoyes, we're not disagreeing, i was just providing a parallel anecdote supporting the point that kindness is not necessarily mushy.
- BenchRouter 9y agoAh, my apologies!
