Though I run this site, it is not mine. It's ours. It's not about me. It's about us. Your stories and your wisdom are just as meaningful as mine.
what if you are truly not in the space to consider them. is it necessary to still say ” i will consider them”. Not an excuse to get defensive but i also think it is OK to say “Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Unfortunately i tend to disagree. If you have the space to discuss, i would like to share why i disagree”.
I don’t think it’s ever really necessary to say this. I personally liked this idea because it allows us to receive someone else’s opinion without feeling a need to get into a debate. But if you flat out disagree and feel more comfortable initiating a conversation about why, then this sounds like a great way to do it!
