Coaching, reloaded - Coaching question of the day #417. - Your own personal lead balloon

"To go down like a lead balloon" is not only a quite funny idiomatic expression but also a very effective metaphor.
And... it is definitely revealing.

What do we like, dislike, find cringeworthy, or impossible to accept?
Can we recognize some kind of pattern or rule of thumb for ourselves?


[It may look just like some sort of silly visual image,
and yet it contains a pretty powerful question]

Coaching question of the day: 
"What does usually go down with you like a lead balloon?"
