So the question of the day is:

How do you get to the point where you don't take bullshit from other people without developing a chip on your shoulder about it?

(semi-rhetorical question i.e. i'm interested in answers but they are not required)

I don't know I guess you'd have to find someone without a chip on there shoulder to ask (or at least a smaller one then mine). I can only imagine that it would have to be a very fine line and difficult not to cross... Or maybe that is the answer, learning when to cross the line and when it happens to be best to just let it go because it not so important to you.

Call people on bullshit, without telling people you are calling them on bullshit- make them .

still be yourself...just don't take any crap from anyone and make sure that they know it. It is kinda complicated at first, but when you really do know and have defined who you are, you can still be that person without taking any shit from anyone...

Which isn't to say you can't not have a chip on your shoulder...you need that to get where you want to be in life.

I don't believe in chips. It may work differently for others, but for me, having a chip seems to cause far more rancor than they solve.

Think Poker...It's all a gamble anyway
