Had a change of heart in the past 24 hours.
A friend checked me on my attitude. And they were 100% right. I’ve been using ego and steam to power through for so long now that it’s become the modus operandi. In every aspect of my life. I’m sure you can guess how well that’s gone over.
Yet I claim to deeply care about others. I don’t want this incongruence anymore. I know it’s been an issue but I couldn’t make it stop by myself.
I want to fully switch to being supportive, empathetic, encouraging, letting go of resentments and frustrations and focusing on what’s really important. Not making any more enemies. Learning to be more diplomatic, patient, etc. I don’t need to be the center of attention and I don’t need to show anybody what’s what, according to me.
