I like to think I would.I guess it depends on the situation.
I trust myself enough to know that I’ll do the right thing, when it needs to be done. Do I have second thoughts? Sometimes, but who doesn’t. It’s natural.
I like to think I know myself pretty well now. Being through hell and back you really learn who you really are and how you work. Of course there are more things that I have to learn about when it comes to me, but I know myself well enough to know when to make the right decisions.
I trust myself when sober and fully-clothed…
GQ!
Most things I do – when it comes to navigating – I think one thing – know I am always wrong – then do the complete opposite.
I think most any situation I would do the right thing. Do we all have moments whether we question if it really is the “right” thing, or weigh the pros and cons of the situation? Yes. This year I was faced with that question, and both options had to be weighed and my life considered. My choice wasn’t the “right” choice to some people, but it definetely was the best one I could make for myself. So, the right thing may not be the same to everybody in some situations, but for me, I don’t regret the choice I made. I wouldn’t purposefully make a decision with malice to hurt someone, that much i know for sure.
@TominLasVegas Try to stay on topic early in the thread. You could always send a comment to her. As for the game, the Raiders are going down.
Professionally, I have an almost perfect track record. Socially my life is a train wreck, very low confidence level; if I ocaissionally make a ‘right’ move it will be immediately cancelled out by some blunder.
I usually know when I am doing the right thing, but if the right thing involves disappointing someone else, I’ll hesitate to act because I have the “please disease”. I am working on that problem.
After 55 years, I think I know myself pretty good and I have faced a lot of different (good and bad) situations and learned lots of life’s lessons. And yes, I’m confident in my behavior and believe I normally do the right thing. I rarely second myself unless the situation is complex with a wide grey area and I was unable to think it through due to a decision or action being necessarily rushed. See ya….Gary/wtf
I trust myself to do the right thing, if I know the right thing to do. There have been a few occasions where it was difficult to tell what was right. On some occasions I didn’t feel like making the effort that the right thing required and I had to give myself a pep talk to get motivated, but in the end I did it. In most situations, I don’t have to think about it because I like to do the right thing.
I know myself very well. I know I will try my best to make the right decision. The grey areas require a decision that I can live with. Sometimes the right decision is the one that’s best for me and sometimes it’s the one that’s best for the majority. Second guessing does happen but I don’t live my life constantly asking “What if I had done this instead of that” I’m happy with who I am and what I do most of the time.
I never know what the right thing is
I don’t trust myself to make the right decision
And usually I can find a way of seeing that it was the wrong decision to make
I do not have the please disease, but i trust my decisions 100%. do i make mistakes? yes, i am human. but, in my occupation, you sometimes do not have time to sit and decide whether this is right or this is wrong. i trust my instincts and so far, i am batting about 90%. cops have gut feelings and most of the time they are correct.
Are you confident in your behavior?
Once I’ve wrapped my brain around something and played out several scenarios enough to choose an action and some backup plans then I am confident.
Do you often have second thoughts?
No. When I have second thoughts it’s usually because new information presents I didn’t factor in before and maybe it’s something that swings the desirability of what I’m working at/for.
How well do you know yourself?
Well enough to not get too comfortable when things are feeling well and smoothe. I know it’s in my nature to shake things up if I become relaxed so I keep an eye on when I’m feeling argumentative or tense because that’s a clue my brain just wants some excitement and knows that’s the easiest way in the past to get it. I’d much rather get my excitement in positive ways and that requires thinking ahead, staging little outings, whatever.
I trust myself 100% – I know that, to a fault, I will do what I consider to be the right thing no matter how much I don’t want to do it.
I’m too busy trying to at least not do the wrong thing to do anything right…
I have a best friend who reminds me of who I am. She knows I am a boy scout, and will always try to do the right thing. Sometimes I forget that, and it’s nice that she reminds me.
I endeavor to do the right thing 100% of the time. Time will be my judge.
Thankfully, I can trust myself in this, though I call it doing the “life thing”—- whatever brings more life, more trust, more kindness, more love to my family & friends. Oh, don’t get me wrong, like the rest, I’m far from ‘perfection’ (especially when it comes to doing whatever it might be right away) but its the norm for me to choose that “life thing,” at any rate.
…And on occasion, when the ‘rate’ seems pretty high on what it costs me, personally, to choose that “life thing,” my family & friends will always definitely be ‘worth it’—- they have nothing to prove to me: family & friends will always be family & friends.
@TominLasVegas Yes that was painful yesterday….even more so when you watch it live. Ugh.
