We never really know how things come through the computer on the other end. But never thought you were speaking about your immediate family. I could tell from the very first post I read of yours that you treasure your wife and your marriage. I was more referring to your co-workers, possibly your kids, the guy who cuts in front of you at the convenience store…lol….those were the one’s I feared for their life.
To me, there’s such a fine line between things like confidence and cocky or even being helpful and being walked on. I am a very helpful person and some people may think I get walked on but I’m only helpful to the people that appreciate it. And I think one of the reasons we get walked on or over is a fear of being aggressive. Being aggressive is a good thing as long as one is intelligently aggressive. It’s when we fumble over our words trying to demand what we want that I think we most are trying to avoid. But it certainly doesn’t sound like you’re having this issue. Standing up for yourself and what you want can be very empowering….and just plan feels good! I’m glad you’re seeing positive results.

If you're searching for that one person that will change your life, take a look in the mirror!
