You've reinforced the idea through practice that the world doesn't explode if you disagree.

Nobody abandons you when you speak your mind.

Now, I also think too that just building a general sense of confidence is helpful.

I give advice on this all the time.

I think when lacking confidence in life, usually the fix is solidifying confidence

your sense of morals and values, sticking to them, being the best person you can be.

That's it.

I could expand on it, but I've done it too many times.

That also, you know, having a general strong sense of self-esteem, I also think could be helpful too, you know, beyond just practicing making perfect.

But also I think it must be said that sometimes it's just better not to involve yourself in a conversation where maybe you disagree.

Like if everyone, if all your friends are talking about how they love the new Harry Styles album and maybe you don't like it and everyone's really passionate about it, they love it.

They can't get enough.

It's the best album they've ever heard, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

you don't necessarily need to chime in.

You can remain silent.

I think it's okay to not agree or disagree, just kind of stay out of it.

I do that all the time.

There are times when I feel inclined to enter a conversation, perhaps start a little debate about something,

And then there are times when I don't.

And I don't think when I don't, it's because I'm lacking confidence or whatever.
