In my blogging journey so far I've mostly tried to write as if I had the facts. For example, with my boundaries post (update: I deleted it) I attempted to create something along the lines of a definitive guide— where I'm sharing my final conclusions and treating them as true— rather than, for example, sharing my subjective experience of a bunch of stuff that really happened and what I'm concluding from it.
I've thought a bit about this. In theory, I prefer giving advice/reflections in the form of "I should do X", rather than "you should do X", even though it feels so natural and common to say advice as "You should do X"
Most advice is an example of people figuring things out for themselves, and we should be generalizing the methods and goals more than the conclusions
