BESTSELF™ ICEBREAKER | Courage 02
WHEN HAVE YOU SPOKEN OUT WHEN IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EASIER TO SAY NOTHING?
All. The. Time.
The number of times I've been lectured on "judgment" is endless. That has always translated to me as "do what is easiest for ME". I tend not to do that. As much gray as I've learned and lived over the years, fundamental right and wrong still comes in black and white.
It took me a long time to realize that people react to me based on their own experiences. I am deeply grateful for and content with my life, I feel no sense of lack or of jealousy, I have no investment in wanting anyone else's life or belongings. My ego is limited and I advocate for myself and others out of altruism. I know I'ma rare bird, I have everything I need. I make the most of what I have and rarely want for more. Even in my previous life when I was searching the couch for change to put gas in the car or feed my kids, I was grateful for my full life.
I can always be counted on to err on doing or saying the right thing - that is not always the popular thing.
I'm okay not being popular.
