If your communication doesn’t challenge what we know or what we believe, why would we grant you a share of our time?
If afterwards everything will be just the same as before and nothing has changed, why invest the time?
Communication that brings no change is a waste of time.

Tension is created by showing us a path that’s different than the one we’re on. A path that we like better. Let’s say because it helps us solve a challenge we’re facing. Or because it provides the missing piece for a puzzle. Or maybe simply because it’s more fun over there.
