A lesson learnt
Often we'd be harsh, acting on impulse.
We'd offer explanations after lecturing, which some of the time, the explanation doesn't matter anymore.
People whom want to stay away from trouble, would simply ignore, hence even the most knowledgeable statement becomes bullshit.

He held his ego high, it started of with self-esteem, but slowly it became ego as his statements becomes judgemental.
He was among the best, many envied him, admire him, and some even worshipped him.
Yes, no doubt he was among the best, he had the experience, he had the knowledge, but just lack of one thing, the understanding.
He was a young lad, with people working under him.
Most of a time, he'd expect people to listen attentively, questions could be make, but it must be questions that are soothing to his ears.
He was a great friend of course, successful young man at his age, charming with his good sense of humor.
However, he never learnt to listen, even his closest friend.
He's so used to commanding and thus forget the simplest virtue of listening.
His story was almost perfect, he is still successful.
Just that, he doesn't have anyone that he could confide in, and most of them were more of acquaintance than friend.
That was a shame, for somebody that successful.
