be less stubborn

I’m a pretty stubborn person. Whenever I have something set, it won’t change unless I think it’s for a good idea. Ina way, it makes me more closed off than anything else. Like, I’m not open to other peoples’ ideas whenever they share them, and I should at least be considering them. Soo, I just want to put this down the drain.

I have always been very capable of allowing others to have their own opinions, ideas, or even spew out facts that i know to be incorrect. I’m not going to stop them because it doesn’t matter to me whether or not they go through life believing the wrong things.

It’s easy to let others win when it’s over something trivial. But to let someone win, and I mean really give them the entire upper hand, that I find impossible. I have a lot of pride and it’s hard to let go of that, even when it’s necessary to.

But sometimes the hard thing and the right thing are the same.

i wanna be less stubborn coz my italian host mum said im stubborn

But I am better than I used to be. It does depend on what it’s about – some things I’m more stubborn with than others.

I’m not stubborn anyway, I just know what I like :P

i’m going to give up on this, because i thought about it, and my stubbornness is really just me being strong-willed. if i decide i’m going to do something, i’ll do it (unless there is a very logical reason i shouldn’t).

and i guess i’m really not all that stubborn. i can admit i’m wrong if i am… i dunno, just doesn’t seem like it needs to be on the goal list for now.

i am learning that i am not always right!

sometimes I am too stubborn. I don’t know why, but especially when I talk to people I am really fond of, I pull back and say I won’t do something. When I feel awful and wanna be strong enough and deal with my own problems, I stir a reaction by being stubborn about something. However, I feel that this is not a beneficial strategy…

Which is the best thing in life for your spirit

i totally should take this up…

Anyone who knows me will tell you that most of the time I do not budge and ‘stick to my guns’. I rarely offer room for compromise and this has caused it’s fair share of grief. I am working on this but it is hard.
