Me being an only child, I’ve grown up having all of my parents’ attention and not really having to share with anyone.
Somewhat due to that, I’ve developed a habit of talking about myself a lot in conversations. I didn’t realize how much I’d do it until last year, someone called me out while talking in a group. It actually did make me think if I did talk about myself a lot. Since then, I’ve tried to be more thoughtful of how I talk to others, making sure I’m not just talking about myself but also giving them the time to talk about themselves and their opinions.
Along with that, I’ve also been trying to learn how to be more patient. I’m kind of a ‘When I want something done I want it done now’ person, but most of the time I just need to chill and wait for things to be done. It’s definitely been a process, but I’m learning how to listen more, and be more patient with myself and others.
