The Art Of Entrepreneurship

When words and actions don’t align


Listen Later

In this S*%! People Say episode, we’re talking about what to do when people’s actions don’t align with their words.

To me, one of the hardest situations to rectify in my mind is when you’re dealing with people whose words and actions don’t align. Should you just let it go? Or do you call them out on their behavior? While it may feel like the harder option, being upfront and honest with others is always the best way to go—both for your sake and theirs. 

At the end of this episode, I’ll give you some insights on how I work past holding grudges (both personally and professionally) and what I’ve learned from my mistakes.

Episode highlights

01:16 When a person’s words and actions don’t align, it makes me wonder if the people I'm dealing with are who they say they are, or are who they think they are. 

03:07 I share personal and professional examples of how I’m handling this type of misalignment. 

05:49 My biggest takeaway in these situations where words and actions do not align is that you have to speak up; holding a grudge does nothing for you.
