0xa820The Illusion of Greatness: When Power Blinds Progress
Every time I read posts about Trump or see him on TV, I feel a deep frustration creeping in. Not just because of him as a person, but because of how many people still buy into the illusion he sells. The whole "Make America Great Again" mantra has been repeated so often that it’s lost all meaning—if it ever had any to begin with. And now, with talk of a so-called "golden era" ahead, I can't help but ask: for whom? Because if being "great" means putting money and power above people and the plan...

It was definitely a winning day.
Seeing a former role model completely out of emotional control was revealing.
Losing it. Almost violent.
Taking my iPhone, refusing to give it back.
Pushing me to sign something, but never actually allowing clarity.
A strange setting.
Heavy.
Usually draining.
But today was different.
I didn’t react.
I observed.
I stayed calm.
That calm unsettled him more than any argument ever could.
So I didn’t push.
I balanced.
And that balance was the real win.

A winning day in a tense exchange with a former role model; calm observation and balance reframed the moment, unsettling the other party and turning restraint into the real win. @0xleonardo
