I’m not a politician so why do I care? Probably because I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. But unless I’m being hateful, racist or judgmental, why would I? Lord help me stop stressing so much over my words and to also stop having to explain ‘what I meant by that’.
People doing this are also doing these things:

“Don’t use words too big for the subject. Don’t say ‘infinitely’ when you mean ‘very’; otherwise you’ll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite.”
This is something I’m terrible at. I didn’t realize how much I relied on such phrases such as “this is the best(worst)thing EVER!” and “this is the (insert any adjective here) thing in the WHOLE WORLD!” to convey my emotions. I knew they were not really accurate, it never really bothered me. I have now come the realization that I am capable of stating my opinions without resorting to cliches and hyperboles.
It’s time for me to say what I mean and mean what I say.
Someone actually used this phrase to describe me the other day. I was quietly happy about that one. Hey, I do say what I mean and mean what I say.
i get dazed i usually say things that other people want to hear and it sometimes gets to me i do say too much sometimes maybe too often i want to say just the right things i do but not when i have to and that i got to change, specially at school, is like i try to be someone im not maybe tough but i know deep down im very sensitive and i try to hide it but i really want to do this is hard though cause your first reaction when told something is to sound cool but im not going by that now, in life and in general is best to say what you mean and mean what you say, ex. i love you , you dont mean it dont say it.
At some level I have laways tried to do this but it amazing how easily you can cave when you encounter someone who seems to be so much more confident in themselves, or just straight up overbearing. I must say that I am also somewhat inclined to “shoot from the hip” during conversations so I tend to get into trouble…I’m improving though
another ongoing goal that is not really quantifiable as ‘done’ and therefore unsatisfying.
Not giving up on doing this, just not having it on my list anymore.
