    True but also let’s be honest, sometimes it works great, but sometimes it doesn’t work at all, and sometimes it works but took 100 times as much time and effort.

    Also, when someone struggles to do something or solve a problem, and you have the solution. But that solution involves multiple steps that make no sense at first. Or you need to explain knowledge you have that they don’t and don’t see as relevant. They try everything else. Give up. You do your weird thing and done. ಠ_ಠ

    The rule I’ve always followed is that if you’re not willing to do the task instead then you dont get to criticize the methods.

    When I was growing up, my da never allowed me to listen to music while I studied or did my homework. He insisted only complete silence or else “you won’t be able to focus and retain the information.”

    Guess who struggled and failed to turn in any completed homework? 😎

    Guess who now can focus amazingly on work while listening to some kind of background noise? 😎

      Oh the feels right here. I was blasting heavy metal while retaining my lessons. Don’t worry my mom still had other ways to make me feel like shit due to ADHD.

    There’s a fine line between the ego knowing you’re right and the maturity to consider another option when you’ve already set your path.
