New Year. New start. New Sam?

The new year comes around and everyones first thought: New Years Resolution.

For the past couple of years, I've made the same cliche resolutions as everyone else. I always put so much effort into thinking what I could change, and what was needed to change.
The first one that was always on my list was: lose weight. That was always an epic fail, and this year I didn't even bother to think about it.
As the new year came around, I kept thinking. Reflecting on 2009 and what happened, what didn't, and what could of.

I finally came up with one:
BE MORE ASSERTIVE.

This simple little sentence is one that scares me, and I don't even know how to go about it.

as⋅ser⋅tive [uh-sur-tiv]

–adjective
1. confidently aggressive or self-assured; positive: aggressive; dogmatic


"Confidently aggressive"- First of all, I have no confidence. None. Zero. This could be a big problem. I'm so unsure of myself, its horrible. I'm going to work on loving me, and not someone else.

For years I have let everyone step over me. I've never been able to say no and I've always been the one who got screwed over time and time again.
For once in my life, I want to strive for excellence without getting hurt.

Wish me luck guys :)
