tell people I disagree with them rather than nodding and being a chicken

didn’t do this today!

this is a great goal! i am starting to work on this

Today I totally accomplished this goal, But i’ll keep it on my list, because I want to actively remember to do this. I stood up for myself in an amazing way. Not many people understand the social anxiety, always feeling lower than other people, insignificant, subserviant even. But today I spoke my mind like no other, and it’s a confidence booster. There’s no need to be scared, and it brings me nose to nose with reality.

What happened was that my partner for a project didn’t e-mail me back for 6 days, then she could only get together once, then she didn’t show up (granted it was close to the best excuse ever)...

Some people think I have too much pride, but I need more, because I need to EXPRESS myself, and learn from what I say. I have too much bottled up! I need to let what I think flow more freely, and learn to have less pride later. I feel great. :)

i spoke my mind the other day and I just sounded too annoyed. it’s not like I’m going to be perfect about telling people I disagree with them. I like this though, I like showing why I have an opinion, yet not go crazy when people act like idiots. I’ll try to focus on this…no more bottling up what I have to say :)

“When I kept silent [that is, when I don’t commit to God, when I pretend I am not angry], my bones grew old through my groaning all the day long [I finally will have to admit it!].”
-Psalm 32:3
