Worrying about likability is partially what has brought us this miserable state of political correctness that we suffer through each day in the United States.\nIf you\u2019re going to break new ground and do great things, face it\u2026you\u2019re not going to be liked or understood by the majority.\nI have clients that hate me, but they stay with me because I\u2019m painfully honest about every aspect of their business that I\u2019m engaged in. I don\u2019t tell them a bad idea that they\u2019ve invested in can be saved if it can\u2019t.  I don\u2019t lessen the blow with flowery words. I simply tell them they have an ugly baby and look for new ways to dress the baby or recommend they start over and try making a prettier baby.\nWorry about making a difference in the world, but don\u2019t worry so much about being liked.
