Oh yeah stubbornness isn’t one of the traits I meant as good. I only meant that stubbornness is all that allowed me to keep certain good traits from being stamped out.
It can just as easily (and in my case also sometimes has) prevented some bad traits from being stamped out. So I need to consciously go way overboard with “I could just as well be wrong” to balance out my natural stubbornness.
- giantg2 6y agoI wasn't talking about my stubbornness being a good trait. It's hurt more than helped, of that I'm sure. The traits that hurt me in school still hurt me today. Like not being afraid to voice a minority opinion. Or correcting the boss/professor. Or having a strong adherence to the rules/policies and holding people/institutions to their word. Thinking outside the box or being more independent.
