selfish yap
the other day i just can't stop myself from sharing my view points. I'm sure I'm not the only one who just does not shut the fuck up sometimes, but it's so annoying when I catch myself in my own personal loop.
although it wasn't like I was not hearing the other person, their views, and opinions. i just keep viewing their world through my own lens. creating a situation where I keep spewing my own views on them. sure, it's not bad all the time and depending on the person it's totally fine. but, I don't want to be that type of person. the goal is to listen and empathize with them, not have a chance to share the thoughts I've been bottling up like a salesman.
i cant just keep assuming that they have similar goals to me. at the end of the day we all travel along our own paths, and their route is their own. shouldn't even suggest that my path is right or even convince of such info. such a silly behaviour to have.
to clear things up, it's not bad to have ca onversion but just annoyed that I really pulled the conversation about his own worries to my own values. going forward, I'll keep this in mind more often as I share my opinions.
to remember, I'll add this to my constitution...
Andy will NOT drag the focus of the conversion onto himself when it’s about empathizing with other's issues.
So so important.
