Denial blows.
“Dude you should have been there last night! We went to Dorrians and got shitfaced! I made out with a 19 year old and that’s the last thing I remember! I woke up this morning in only my shoes! Somebody puked in my bed and today I’m limping for some reason! It was awesome!” Really? Because it sounds fucking heinous. Why lie and say that was fun when you do ACTUALLY fun things all the time but downplay them when people ask? Why say, “Oh, that was nothing, just a silly little project,” when really it was something you poured your soul into for like a year and it turned out pretty well and, in the process, it made a lot of people happy? In conclusion, if something sucks, it’s ok to admit it, but if something rocks your box, don’t deny it.
Today remind yourself: Denial blows.
