Yep. Sometimes the truth hurts, but in the end it helps far more than offering meaningless words of encouragement.
Another lesson for Luke: Develop a thick skin if you want to make money in the outdoors industry.
Again I'll just say that there is a way to be truthful and helpful without being a smarta$$.
I have been a trainer for years and I have helped more than just a few become successful in business. I have taken servers in restraunts and help them become six figure professionals. If you think having a "positive mental attitude" is meaningless words of encouragement then you really know nothing of helping the young to become successful. PMA is the single most important factor and they will tell you that at any business training seminar across the country.
