Yesterday I saw person A endeavoring to refute statements put forth by person B by insulting person B, rather than addressing the substance of what person B had asserted.
And many fell for it.
It happens all the time.
Bad logic.
If a liar tells the truth, the truth does not become a lie.
In the case of truth, the message is not dependent on the messenger.
This is why where you’ve been & what you’ve accomplished or failed to accomplished so far is almost totally irrelevant when it comes to attracting the right one’s with your voice.
Speak the truth, and the best form of influence will always be on your side.
