One way to have the courage to make the first move and do what is right is to adopt what I call a “cruise mentality.” One of the reasons I love to take cruise vacations is the sense of freedom I have knowing I’ll never see my fellow passengers again. It enables me be authentic and play bigger than I would if surrounded by people I know and see regularly. That same mentality allows me to tactfully but bravely speak up when necessary, even if I may see those people again.
