Members Topic: How headstrong are you? - Page 2

I certainly want to be a strong one (mentally..!)..trying every day, pushing my limits every minute (I swear) but unfortunately I still think about others like what would they think about me or my decisions.. I still get influenced by what people say to me and thus even change my path.. I still get confused while taking important decisions. So, I am quite unhappy about this nature of mine, I don't know why am I like this. Would I ever be that courageous to change myself for myself? It's a big question.

I am ridiculously headstrong to a fault. If I’m passionate about something and believe it is the right way, I’ll stand alone if I have to but I won’t budge from my stance.

I'm rebellious to the core, even my parents know that asking me not to do something will have the opposite effect. 😆

Hehe...😆

I am both

I want it my way but need other’s support too, if no one is with me I’ll still keep moving but slightly unhappy with loneliness feeling.

I understand 🤗 . It's like sab hote toh khush hote

On this forum I’m a like a dog with a bone. An only 2 people can stop me. Then I’ll back off or back down 😆

@Bold.... That's being sensible 👍🏼

I set my own goals and fulfill them. I don’t ask anyone’s opinion forget seeking validation.

You need to know why you want what you want and know what it’s gonna bring, why are you doing it? Why do you want it? What do you think you’ll get? If it’s set on false premise you’ll be disappointed.

Dropping something after realizing it’s not worth it is strength not weakness. Being stubborn is being stupid.

So I find these labels funny 😂

We need to be mature and use our intelligence and be wise.

The struggle is always within. If I can’t do something it’s because of something going on internally and I need to dig deep and heal that part for me to move forward otherwise it’s gonna create the same things.

It’s a vicious cycle and we are all junkies. Hope this makes sense 😂

Yes doing something for the sheer joy of being rebellious is silly I understand but I'm talking about being on the other side of the tide. Not nessecery to ask for approval but maybe doing something that'll make you happy but other's might be disappointed with you for that

Same here. I used to date this guy whom I thought my mom wouldnt approve. But when she did, I lost interest in him 😆

I aspire to be that but sadly I am not till now...I am a confused soul, so each and everything (little to little things, I take other's opinion, from clothes to day to day plans to future plans, also I change my decisions according to people's mood, if not their orders or opinions..

......I admire each and everyone who has this kind of headstrong attitude, personality...You all are gems❤️

Hehe its equally fine to be on the journey to self validation as much as being self validated ❤️. Even I used to be an approval seeking personality as a teenager🤗

Stubborn to the core, but I'm fairly logical and practical. If I see your point, I'll back down.

Same here....but my struggle is other's refuse to make me see a logical point. Its more of we said so you shouldn't do this.😆

In my family if someone wants to talk about headstrong behavior or wants to provide an example, my name is bound to come up. I'm notoriously headstrong.

I was not always this way. Till my early 20s I was the "good" one, soft spoken one, obedient one, well mannered one and all the other adjectives. But in my mid to late 20s when I chose a particular career path and chose not to marry till I accomplished my goals, I suddenly turned into a headstrong, stubborn, selfish, opportunistic person. 😛

I have one life to live and I want to do certain things in this lifetime. I don't care what label gets attached to me as long as I'm happy with the path I'm on.

I'm living these days now😆 . So I might actually come to you for some advice.
