The Thinking Behind The Tweet
First, learn about the extent of the fineness of your argument. I mean, bring your thick skin and thin skull...and keep your ego under full control.
Was your argument really as fine as you thought?

The Thinking Behind The Tweet
It seems I am on the verge of concluding Thought is either Creative or Destructive...never in between the two.
Our Creative Thoughts are aligned with our true Goals...leading to productive building and growth.
Since all other thoughts are not aligned with our true Goals they subtract from achievement of our true Goals...leading to things that are not productive building or growth. Their effect is distraction from our true Goals, which is negative, making them "Destructive Thoughts".

The Thinking Behind The Tweet
Sometimes sour fruit is the best thing to consume. The British found that out several centuries ago and the practice of eating limes was encouraged by Scottish Dr. James Lind. He helped the British Navy understand limes and lime juice prevented sailors from the pain and suffering of scurvy. This fact was known prior to the arrival of Dr. Lind. And, the benefit of limes was well understood when he documented proof. Yet, the practice of eating limes to prevent scurvy was not adopted by the British Navy until some time later.
The first sailors who ate limes were ridiculed. By fellow sailors and pirates alike.
To this day the legacy of ridicule lives on in the form of a derogatory/racist ancestor of the word lime.
To this day, people resist when others try to force them to eat sour fruit.
So, take care when you try to unload sour fruit on your people.
Care taken while introducing sour fruit is inversely proportional to the amount of complaining that introduction generates. The greater the care, the lesser the complaints.
