What a phenomenal read! π I love that you had faith in your natural skills, and let your confidence shine in the seminar! Playing things by ear and going with the flow can ease us through so many challenges.
The attitude you took towards being the "new girl" is a great way to have a solid foundation in any situation I think. As is what you said later on about other people's perceptions:
I am myself and I am not going to change to suit anyone's expectation, neither do I expect them to make efforts to think about me in a manner that I desire.
ππ This resonated with my heart. We should aim to do no harm, and otherwise just follow our own path... it can be hard to stay in this mindset, so I like to remind myself of the famous quote "What other people think is none of my business". π
Thanks for sharing this wonderful reflection !LADY π
