In what way do you think your thoughts & emotions affect your willingness to make contacts? it inhibits me. I hate pushy people and don't want to come off that way. I'm afraid I will turn people off.

If answering these questions brought up negative thoughts and feelings, what do you think created those feelings? the fact that some people don't get me. I have a retail job. Sometimes I try to make a joke and it comes off bad and then I get pulled into the office because someone complained. Having this happen at work slows me down with my business too.

What did you discover about your courage to connect? WHEN I do it, it's not that bad, I have to be like Nike, just do it.

This was the hardest part of the homework and the one I waited the longest to do.
