1 - You don't need to stay around discomfort​

Your level of tolerance doesn't define how great of a person you are. And staying in discomfort for an extended period of time won't make you a more empathetic person if you forget yourself along the way.

 

2 - However you want people to treat you, treat them the same way first.

Show the example. You want harmony in your relationship ? Create harmony in them, and lead the path. You cannot expect people to do what you are not willing to do yourself.

 

​3 - Speaking your truth will polarize your circle

You will attract new people in your life, confident individuals whom will reflect the journey you are on. And you will start to shake the image of you your current circle hold in their mind, and this may cause them to react differently towards you, they might unconsciously reject the person you are becoming, and you will have to face the distortion of some of your relationships.
