Be myself

You just have to be confident and ask for things with sincerity.

When it all comes down to it, it doesn’t matter what you may want. It matters the impact you actually had. Who did you stop and listen to? Who did you care for?

In being myself I can’t become selfish. I must think of other people and their needs. So there must be a fine line between pleasing others and sticking up for yourself.

Why is it so hard for me accept where I am at? I can be very critical of myself.

I need to learn to assert myself more.

On a special event, I deserve to be treated special.

I need to stop wanting things that I can’t have or don’t have or have no control over ever having and just accept things the way they are and enjoy them for the way they are. I need to accept the present and smile. I can’t want what others have or that life worked out differently for them. Somehow I am who I am. I am who I am for a reason. Perhaps I can’t see that reason right now but the fact that I am here as I am for a reason is important. I still question why I do want things,though, even if I may never have them. But I guess that is the part about being open to positive change while you work with the circumstances that you have.

I took a big step that upheld my dignity and self worth.

This has a lot to do with confidence. Being confident and being myself.

I hate it when I am quiet. I prefer to be much more talkative/outgoing.

I keep telling myself that I am, “Free to be me.”
