What Are We Afraid Of?
Let us start with a simple truth. I generally avoid the word truth except when it refers to the voice of God. It seems presumptuous to declare anything with such certainty. What is called truth is usually opinion. In this case, however, I am willing to call the following statement a truth:

You aren’t, but most people are. Now, you may not be afraid of your immediate boss, but move up the chain of command and each of us will find someone to worry about. If you don’t want to call it fear, then can you agree that we are very eager to please the boss? We care deeply what the boss thinks, plans, values, and wants. This truth is quite amazing.
