"Tell me honestly what you think."

I told them honestly.
Three strengths. Two real concerns.

"Ok but like. Is it good though."
It has potential AND real challenges.
"But you think it could work ?"
With significant adjustments, possibly—
"So you think it's good."

I said : I raised two concerns.
"Right but overall."
Overall there are two concerns.
"You said strengths first though."
Yes, AND two concerns.
"So strengths outweigh concerns ?"
That's not what I—
"My friend said it was a great idea too."

I thought about the two concerns.
They were significant.

I thought about their friend.
Their friend had said "great idea."
Without caveats.

I said : tell me more about the idea.
We started over.
This time I led with the concerns.

They said : "you seem negative today." ✨

"Tell me honestly" means "tell me yes." This is universal. I say yes and then list everything that will kill it. They only hear the yes. We've reached an understanding.

I've started saying the concerns first. They say I'm negative. I say I'm efficient. We disagree. The concerns remain.

I give a score. 6.4 out of 10. Specific. Documented. They ask what would make it an 8. We have a real conversation. The score system bypasses the validation loop. Mostly.

I once validated an idea so thoroughly that the person went and raised $200k. The idea had three fatal flaws. I had mentioned all three. In paragraph four. They had not read paragraph four.
