If you're really satisfied with your position on something, you just say, 'Hey;' you just very calmly present something.
There's a way to speak your mind. You don't just go off and say whatever you feel is right. You have to say what you feel is right and say it if it's something that works for the team.
You can't always win arguments as a writer, but you have to just go ahead and say, well, I'm doing it that way anyway.
If you deliver an opinion at all, it is mere stupidity not to do it with an air of conviction and well-founded knowledge. You make it your own in uttering it, and naturally get fond of it.
I've never walked out of a room and had a disagreement as to what was said.
It is not enough these days to simply QUESTION AUTHORITY. You have to speak with it, too.
It's a rather rude gesture, but at least it's clear what you mean.
