We know that we may come off as intimidating, rude, diva-ish but when it comes to telling someone the way you feel it is always better to just get to the point and skip the confusion; “the truth hurts” but someone has to do it, someone has to say it, if not for ourselves, then the world…okay, over-exaggerating but in the day by day situations, confrontations are unavoidable whether, in school, home, work confrontations will be present. And yes, sometimes what we have to say may be harsh, but it’s honest and if anything, we weren’t afraid to face the outcome.
1. You Tell It Like It Is
Brutal? Maybe…sometimes, but it’s better than sugarcoating the facts.
2. People Seek Your Advice
You aren’t afraid to give your two-cents, and many people benefit from that investment.
3. People Respect You
Being able to confront people no matter the outcome means no can take advantage of you.
4. You Radiate Dignity and Pride
Work it, girl!
5. People Admire That You’re Bold
Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.
6. You’re Honesty Is Appreciated
It’s hard to find honest people these days, we’re a rare gem to find.
7. You Take Charge of a Situation
You’re not a pushover and know when the line has to be drawn.
8. You’re Always Your Authentic Self
We confront ourselves more than we confront others, we know we’re not perfect and don’t expect others to be either.
9. You Take Risks That Challenge Society
The reaction to confrontation is scarier than the actual confrontation, but hey…risks are necessary.
10. Not All Heroes Wear Capes
Sometimes you just have to take one for the team.
Confrontation is uncomfortable, unfair and sometimes messy but a necessary life skill that helps you succeed, “with great power, responsibility.”
