Conflict Assessment

So when I took a conflict assessment test I found out that I am very adept to handling conflict and do well with meditation, negotiation, and anger management. I am very approachable; people turn to me for advice about conflicts and their resolution... Now I never used to be like that at all, really I was the one who would be very confrontational towards everyone and was not very approachable at all. I remember someone telling me one time that when they first met me they were a little scared to talk to me only because my body language and the way I came off was a little too strong for them, but in the end when they got to know me a little better and they found out that I am a very sweet person and only look tough. Now the only reason why now I think that my attitude on life has changed and did a whole 180 degree turn for the better is because I look at life through a whole other set of eyes due to my sobriety. I am not that angry tough little girl who really was just scared of what you thought of her, and if you didn't like me than you were my enemy. I love my life now and only try to help people get that happiness that I wanted so badly when I first started to get sober and the happiness that I have today. I am so glad that I found it and I am hanging on for dear life to it. The funny thing is that it says I do well with meditation, well that is so true because I do this every morning when I wake up because I feel that when I do this my day goes better, and when I don't meditate before my day begins I tend to be in a very bad mood and I don't have a good day at all. I like to get up a little bit earlier in the morning so that I have time to do my meditation and if I don't get my meditation in before my day begins, I take the time to sit down and do it when I have free time during the day so that I have a better day after that. I love the way my life is now and I really would have never had got this inner peace that I have today if I was not sober and did not have the support that I have today, and for that I am eternally grateful.
