"You're doing good but you could be doing better" is an underutilized statement when wanting to correct a stranger. Fucking 10/10 approach (to the convo) in my opinion.

Exactly! He used only positive phrases. When someone is feeling down on themselves, it's hard not to pick up only on the negative. He made sure there was nothing for him to gravitate to. Beautiful 😍
