stop being too nice to people!

I guess I’ve noticed this for some time, and it really bothers me that I’m too nice and shouldn’t be. I’ve decided that I’m not going to let people walk all over me anymore. I’m going to put myself over what others think. After having some talks with people close to me, I realize that I need to put my foot down at times. I have to stop beating around the bush and just be honest to people, just say what I really feel without being afraid. When I talk to strangers, I must be more confident. I’m going to be more affirmative and less neutral. I will stop using words/phrases like “I think so”, “maybe”, “I guess”, etc… and stop being sorry for everything. I will only be nice to those who really deserve it.
