Personalities always want something, I learnt that from someone.
I have a unique perspective on the truth.
You have a unique perspective on the truth.
They have unique perspectives on the truth.
The peaceful convergence of perspectives whether the same or different is the ideal.
However!
You’re not going to find this with everyone you meet. In fact, it’s quite a rarity.
Echo chambers exist for a reason – it’s just easier for people to flock together and not have to justify themselves every which way. Most want to be easily welcomed. Understandable.
RATHER DULL THOUGH! And dangerous.
Dull because there’s no spice and dangerous because people in collective will automatically assume their way works best for everyone. Confirmation bias.
If you’re going to break out and be free, here’s the only thing you must do. Define boundaries.
If everyone around you states what they want and expect it to be fulfilled, you can do that too.
You’ll find a lot of people are very unhappy about it because despite being in grown-up bodies, most haven’t progressed beyond adolescence mentally and emotionally.
It’s how you decide who to have in your life and how to deal with them.
The goal is saying what you think, feel and want in a very calm, very placid, very matter-of-fact way and then getting on with, guess what……
YOUR LIFE!
