Takecare, don't fight, and remember: if you do not choose to lead, you willforever be led by others. Find what scares you, and do it. And you can make adifference, if you choose to do so.
Resolvingconflict is rarely about who is right. It is about acknowledgment andappreciation of differences. One ofthe best ways to persuade others is with your ears by listening to them.
Talk back to your internal critic. Train yourself to recognize and write downcritical thoughts as they go through your mind. Learn why these thoughts areuntrue and practice talking and writing back to them.
