Can a problem be so tough that we deceive ourselves about solving it?
In any problem there is a temptation to soften the edges, smooth the rough spots, to paint a better picture than we see.
Sometimes we take sides and spin the truth in favor of our side, even when that contributes to a conflict or problem. We can do better than that.
Solving problems together requires the courage to tell the truth as you see it.
Not our version of the truth. Not our ideal of the truth. The truth as it exists, weak spots and all.
If we want to clearly analyze a problem, we must be willing to see, and tell the truth.
