One cannot choose wisely for a life unless one dares to listen to oneself, one's own self, at each moment in life.
Abraham Maslow
Your Year of Saying the Costly True Thing. The honest read you've been holding back, the one that would actually help, finds its moment this year, and you give it anyway. That's the move the year rewards. In early spring, a conversation you've been postponing opens cleanly when you decide to open it, and what falls away afterward is lighter than the thing you were protecting. By midsummer, someone borrows your eye for a project, then your judgment, then your whole approach, and the work is better for it. The taste they're borrowing has always been an argument for a specific way of seeing, and this year the argument wins rooms. Say the true thing when the question is real. The year has arranged itself around your willingness to mean it.
