How often do you let people walk over you?

I do not let people walk over me, and I believe that no one should make any other person walk over them. Some do it because they know that the other person has more power, fame, and fortune. They feel that they can never compete.

It is true that they probably cannot especially since the other person has the money to make things turn in his favor, but if the person would at least speak up, then there will be some people who will believe this person. Would you rather have a lot of people who believe in you because you have money or would you rather have a few people who will believe in you because they genuinely believe in your honesty and character?

I am not someone who can be called submissive. In fact, I am someone who will tell people exactly what I think of them when they ask. I am known for being straightforward and honest although I try my best not to blurt out what is on my mind.

Through the years, I have learned to restrain my negative thoughts especially if they are not being asked. Yet, I would still fight back if I feel that a person is taking advantage of me or I will tell the person directly how I feel. I also try my best to become communicative with other people because there are some issues that may only arise because people have misunderstood each other.
