"تلطیف قابلیتی است که به شما این امکان را می‌دهد تا به یک شخص دعوت کنید که به جهنم برود، اما به گونه‌ای که او به این سفر اشتیاق کند."

Winston Churchill

Simplified Meaning:

Being tactful means being clever and careful with your words so that you can say something harsh or unpleasant without offending the other person. Imagine a manager needing to tell an employee that their performance is poor and they need to work harder. Instead of saying, "You are doing a terrible job," the manager might say, "I see a lot of potential in your work, and I believe you can improve even more." This way, the employee feels motivated to do better rather than feeling insulted. Using tact is like giving constructive criticism with a positive spin, making people more likely to accept and act on the feedback. It helps in maintaining good relationships and managing difficult conversations smoothly.
