🗂 Avoiding worrying

What you see and how you perceive yourself is not really how anybody else sees you. There are people whose natural state is to worry about things. My natural state is to try not to let things worry me, because I don’t like the feeling of being worried. I don’t like confrontation, because I find that I don’t actually want to upset somebody by being as firm as I want to be. So I do sometimes hold back, but I’m much more stubborn than people think. www.theguardian.com/lifeandst…
