Here’s a piece of unsolicited advice to a lot of people out there — when you make a point, don’t diminish it in the same breath. It’s remarkable how often I hear this every day. Words like “a little bit” added into a sentence that doesn’t warrant it, like you’re a bit sheepish about your own point.

It's like people can't like find a better word.
But it stands out too, especially from speakers at conferences. You're the knowledgeable one; own it!
Er, no. Delete those last three words! 🤦🏼♀️
Yes it is. Let it stand.
That said, I will lose sleep years later for saying a sentence that was not 100% factually correct.
