Using Reasonable Confidence

Sometimes, I notice that a close friend of mine who really isn't the sharpest and bravest kind of person likes to get a little too ahead of himself and start endeavoring with some hopeless activities he thinks he could outplay from feeling like he has this special edge over others. The main activity I've seen him do is pretty much gamble at a casino. He's no longer there! His reason is pretty much there are only one in a million people who make it to the top through gambling and so he just stays quiet about it now. I know that he hates losing at casino games, and it seems like they've given him a real hard lesson in that gambling for fast money using your hard earned money does not feel very good at all in the overall picture.

I guess he's got a little better because he's now designing a video game while hiring a teenager who only wants free food and a measly two-hundred dollars. It also looks like he's really taking his time with designing this video game and with all those cool ideas being put into a grinder already and placed in today's market, I'm not really so sure if he's going to keep up. I've noticed that he's really happy for the effort he puts in as long as he didn't really lose anything valuable or gained something from it. I guess that's okay overall.

I used to measure the amount of courage I had when it came to getting something uncomfortable done. It was like risking shame and feelings of dejection from going after something. In a way, it was like how unafraid am I of being rejected at a lucrative opportunity or even with a girl I'm really interested in dating. In a way, my mistakes came when I tied in good results from having courage into my own personal pride.

I'm now being really honest about situations and managing my own cool when I feel extremely annoyed or badgered about something where I just want to scream out insults and yell at someone. I can understand it a lot more and withstand the heartache that comes from being yelled at a little better now. I mean I hate being yelled at and would do all I can to avoid it, but then again, I'm starting to not really care about being criticized or bugging some sensitive people that much.

It all ties down to how much something bothers me, and I'm sure people will use all sorts of tacky methods which is probably just raising their voice to bother me so it would prevent me from bothering the person. By me still being persistent, the person is apt to say that I need to get some help- I really understand now. It's really not enough information because as long as I don't admit it during those time periods, I can still raise a lot of doubt and headache and just start laughing about the situation while getting the other person to just relent to my strong personality these days. I understand where it goes now when people end up doing that to me. Sometimes, I'm just going to have to just stand there and take it when people have their moments but I'm just now understanding my role so well now and pretty confident about it from this short period of time. It looks like I really have it going and that I pretty much am a pretty resourceful and eclectic person.
