A brief YouTube Short by Dr. Aziz offering a single, actionable coaching tip: pick today's date and decide to be 5% more direct in every interaction starting immediately (meetings, friends, family, partners). The tactic is framed as small, incremental change rather than radical behavior shift, aimed at increasing personal freedom.
So here's what it is. You decide what's the date that you're watching this video. Look at the clock on your phone or your watch or just maybe know the date off hand. Maybe it's Thursday, maybe it's Tuesday. Whatever. Today's date. As of today's date, decide that you are going to be 5% more direct in every interaction you enter into. Starting right now. Right now. So that next meeting you walk into, 5% more direct. That next conversation with a friend, with your family, 5%. That next interaction with your lover, your partner, your spouse, 5%. What does that look like? It doesn't look like a radical. Oh my gosh, what's gotten into you? Change. It's really small. Like I was doing this myself. I'm constantly looking at how I can be less nice and more me, even after all these years because it's like there's. There's always another level of freedom.
