lately it seems that i have met so many people that are scared of their own shadow. they don't want to stand up in front of the class, they don't want to take control of a situation... the list goes on.
in our house, we're Felters. i AM Sam Felter. capable of completing all things, and completing them with proficiency and efficiency. i have embraced that role so much so that i am more outgoing in things that i do around campus, at work, and with people in general.
to see others struggling with that baffles me. if you have an opinion, and the time allows for you to do so, make it known. don't be afraid to stand up for yourself. don't get carried away with it and be obnoxious, but know that you can do anything you set your mind too. it just surprised me to see that so many people struggle with being able to voice what they feel, or let their actions speak as loud as their thoughts do. if something is keeping you from being comfortable or fixing a problem, do something about it! you are *insert name here*!
i've noticed that i have become friends with people i never thought i would be friends with because that wall was knocked down. i'm no longer afraid of what people think of me and it has allowed me to get to know so many new and interesting people that i am now such good friends with, people have actually asked how long we have known each other even though it has only been for a few short months. get out there! get to know people and let them get to know you! it really is life changing, for the better.
