If you don’t like the way people are doing things say something. If you’re not enjoying what you’re doing be honest with yourself. If you like someone tell them.
Be honest with people. Let them know when you’re being bothered, nervous, scared, angry, sad, happy, excited, indifferent, worried, shy, etc. Quit holding back how you truly feel about certain situations. Tell the truth. Focusing on being more honest with people. Don’t be a complete asshole about it. Don’t say, “you look ugly today sweetie” or “I think you’re a stupid bumbling idiot”. That will most likely get you slapped and/or punched in the face. Say, “instead of doing your hair like that do it like this, I love your hair like that”. If they ask, “Don’t you like my hair how it was?” Tell them the truth. “No I don’t.” They might be upset at first but appreciate the honesty. Shit, they might still hit you. My point is it helps to be honest.
When they come to you with questions now, they know you’ll answer them truthfully and honestly. Sometimes, the truth really does hurt but it will help others grow. It helps you grow. No more hiding behind lies. If you feel a certain way express it. You’ll get bad responses every now and then. People will still get pissed. It’s better for them to hear it from you, face to face, then hear it from someone else.
Being honest is hard. You’re going to hurt some feelings. In the end though would you rather be called a liar or honest?
