The complete text

Hi, I’m Mark McPherson.

Welcome to one of my Guiding Principles for Mastering Tough Conversations.

This Guiding Principle is ‘Don’t expect to be liked’. In fact, don’t expect to be thanked or respected either.

It’d be nice, but just don’t expect it. If you do expect it, you’re very likely to be disappointed. And not only that, you’re likely to be put off from having the very sorts of Tough Conversations you should be having.

So, don’t expect to be liked, thanked, or respected. It’d be nice, but just don’t expect it.

Anyway, wherever you are and whatever you’re doing, please look after yourself, look after your friends and family and I hope to chat to you soon.

All the very best.

Here's what to do next.
