I'm actually amazed at this.

Basically used to ask women for their suggestions on things, this includes my mom as well as my daughter who can't be excluded.

Ever since I took the approach of "don't tell me what to do" and for my family "tell me what to get done, not how to do it", I've been so much happier with myself. Basically I can make rational, thought out decisions.

Now things go through my own plan, my own way, my own time.

I really didn't think it'll have any effect, but here we are. I'm only confused whether this is because of "not listening to women" or whether it's a mgtow side effect of being independent.
