[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I stopped being flaky and stopped being late. I started investing in my friendships more. I live overseas and my friends are all scattered around (my closest friends live in NYC, DC, SF, London, and Shanghai) and these long-term friendships are really important to me. I make a point to reach out and see how everyone's doing regularly. I raised my standard of cleanliness for my home. By keeping the house neater, my mood tends to be better overall and I have more energy (I'm not kidding). I'm already pretty minimalist, but now I regularly get rid of things rather than doing a big purge. More manageable. I refuse to engage in drama with anyone, ever. I stopped being self-deprecating. It's not to say I act like a cocky a**hole, I just started to realize my value and worth and no longer present myself that way. If I don't feel it, I don't do it. Friendships, undertakings, books, whatever - life is too short. [/quote] All of the above! YES to no drama and to "if I don't feel it, I don't do it." If my MIL sends me an e-mail I don't feel like dealing with, I just hit forward to my husband, or I just delete it. If someone asks me to buy crap for their kids' school, I send a check to the school instead in their name so that I don't have dumb crap cluttiering up my house. If someone invites me to an MLM party, I just say "No, thank you" and if they are pushy about it online, I just flat out say "I don't buy MLM products."[/quote]
