As I become stronger and be true to myself, I find that some people left. Some would make comments that I am arrogant. Am I? I don’t think so! I feel more confident about my skills, ability and stay true to my own belief. I find my voice and speak my opinion in a good manner. No long be that doormat who people walked all over. Even a doormat, it has a purpose or value, otherwise, stores won’t sell it and people won’t buy it. I have always said to my best friend, “I will always be in work in progress!” Sometimes, I fell a few steps backwards. I believe we are constantly changing, good or bad. When those periods that we are changing to become a better self, it has a sense of fear to who I am turning into. I want to make sure I won’t turn into that arrogant person. It is such a contraction, that I want to become a confident person but I am always scared if I would become that arrogant person. It seems like it is a battle that will never stop. If I sometimes sounded arrogant, it is still better than always be that doormat. Whose know when my heart stops beating, mind as well, I choose to be happy and feel great about myself! Make the best of each day!
I find these words that help me to understand the process of change.
Shifting
As you are shifting, you will begin to realize
that you are not the same person you used to be.
The things you used to tolerate have become intolerable.
When you once remained quiet,
you are now speaking your truth.
Where you once battled and argued,
you are now choosing to remain silent.
You are beginning to understand the value of your voice
and there are some situations
that no longer deserve your time, energy and focus.
