In her book "The Art of Connection," author Susan C. Young explores the challenges that arise when individuals prioritize their need to be correct over the emotions of those around them. She highlights a common situation where some people are so entrenched in asserting their viewpoints that they fail to recognize the impact of their words and actions on others. This behavior can create conflict and impede connections.
Young advocates for a more empathetic approach, suggesting that kindness should take precedence over the desire to be right. She encourages readers to reflect on the greater benefits of fostering relationships through understanding and compassion, rather than allowing pride or assertiveness to dominate interactions.
