Formation
Friction is not abuse. Avoidance is not peace. Find one person who will tell you the truth and give them permission to swing. If your whole circle only affirms you, you do not have community. You have a fan club.
“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”
Proverbs 27:17
The move: Ask one trusted person: 'Where am I lying to myself?' Listen without defense. Write what you heard.
