They aren't forced. They surrender. There are few truly brave people among us.
I try my best to admit when I’m wrong or have screwed up. It lends itself to getting the situation corrected more quickly. Best to bring it to the attention of others right away instead of letting them find out later.
But, if I don’t think that I am wrong, I’ll stick up for myself and let the chips fall where they may.
Their bottom line is ‘The Bottom Line’. But they forget that by wussing out that they also mess up their bottom line.
