When I was younger I thought it was a smart move to be deceiptive and fool people above my paygrade to make them feel important and or smart, to allow them their foolishness.

It is bad to do that as you just justify their behaviour, and allow them to keep behaving as such by giving them what they expect and want.

Maybe my attitude could land me some enemies and prevent me opportunities, but I decided not to continue that vicious cycle.

We need to surround ourselves with people we respect and respects us equally, somewhere were feedback is possible.

Not only for the better of our minds but also for the better of the things we produce.
