People create version of you that serve their needs, not yours. Their disappointment when you break character isn’t your failure. Let them adjust to reality. You cant fix a problem that exists only in their mind
The most underrated skill in business: Being easy to work with. Not the smartest person. Not the most talented. Just the person everyone wants on their team. Returns emails quickly. Doesn't create drama. Makes other people's jobs easier. Shows up prepared. While everyone's trying to be impressive, just be helpful. It pays better.
