Honestly , people poke fun at me all the time for my height , especially when reaching for higher shelves or when I have to climb shelving to reach a product . Even customers crack jokes sometimes . I suppose the positivity comes from accepting my height as is . I indulge in other things such as writing or cooking that way at the very least people can ' t really poke fun at much other than my height versus my other qualities . Basically , I refuse to allow others shallow opinions affect me anymore . I used to , but it ' s like scaling a mountain and having someone toss rocks at you . They can only hit you if you ' re standing still . Just have to put your best foot forward and go from there . try to find things you ' re good at , don ' t bother with saying nothing , because everyone is good at something it just requires patience to seek it out . Without patience , you will struggle to be positive or in the very least content .
