self satisfied?

Our post at daily headspa looking closely at the notion of self-satisfaction has me wondering if my entry here today ought to be about something I'm satisfied with in myself today. Or is that too hard to claim?

I'll give it a try.

I am satisfied with the way I clarified something in a meeting today at work. Instead of letting a questionable assumption about who was going to do what just hang there, when I could feel it was muddying the waters (mine at least) I spoke up. Like I would probably have experienced in many other (most?) workplaces, I felt a real pressure to let it slide and not show my ignorance. But I figured it was better to clear it up now then when expectations aren't met down the road or I step on somebody's turf by accident. I feel satisfied with myself for braving it.

Whew. That's it then.
