Guidance
How to use this page well.
Why this works
- This page is useful when you need to ask clearly, state a boundary, decline something, or follow up without circling around it.
- It helps remove hedging while keeping the tone workable.
- More direct wording can reduce confusion and back-and-forth.
What to avoid
- Do not mistake directness for aggression.
- Do not remove every softener if the relationship still calls for some warmth.
- Do not make the message shorter if what it really needs is a clearer ask.
Tips
- Name the point or request early.
- Trim filler that delays the message.
- Keep the tone steady even when the wording becomes firmer.
