Marriage should not be a goal it should be a choice. One choice available out of many recognized as valid by society. But it isn't. Not yet.

Micromanaging erodes people's confidence, making them overly dependennt on their leaders. Well-meaning leaders inadvertently sabotage their teams by rushing to the rescue and offering too much help.
