"Once I started being willing to disappoint others I stopped disappointing myself as much." This!! But also the people that matter won't be nowhere near as disappointed as you think they will be.
I Love this! We deserve to give ourselves the same grace that we give to others, it does not mean that we are bad people for being assertive. You described it perfectly! It allows people to know and choose you precisely for who you are, and in the long run, everything hurts less when we feel like we're actually attracting what we want in life and not just merely existing. We are living life; rather than life living through us

Thank you!
Some forms of friction are not obstacles to human development, but conditions necessary for psychological adaptation, competence, and meaning.
