[intro] hi everyone, the topic of our conference call today: should we stand our ground in conversations? any thoughts? anybody? [female asks] well, should you be pushed around forever and always take it on your chin? [male answers] you’re right, i’m done saying ‘whatever,’ what we need to do is to grow a thick skin. [epic music] [male’s voice] the pressure is real. dejected i feel. with every defeat i have my skin peel. so listen up everyone, here is the deal: [sound effect] [verse] [males’ voice] i wish i was born with thick skin already, but for me that’s not the case. some people get it in their genes, to give lip for them is like tying a shoelace. they talk back without an effort, just shrugging it off on the spot. yet, i feel every hit in the face, no matter where i sit, my chair is always hot. but i saw others around me transform, who found strength deep inside to change. they developed hard shell they never had, and managed their lives rearrange. so i asked these people one day, 'what affected this decision in your head?' and they all gave me the same answer; do you wanna know what they said? [female’s voice] tell us, [male’s voice] what? [drop] [epic music] [male’s voice] they said: if you want to stop losing and start to win, you must end being weak and grow a thick skin.

[male’s voice] bro, he is in the league of his own. noone will ever be thick like him. [instrumental] [female’s voice] i get it, what was before, you won’t allow, but can you tell me more, before i believe you and say wow? [male’s voice] yeah pal, i’m changing and this is exactly how. listen carefully, to what i’m telling you now. [instrumental] [verse 2] [male’s voice] there is no more one-sided, i’ll talk back as it’s proportional, i’m done being sensitive, submissive, and emotional. i don’t care what they think, i’ll speak with authority, my life is what’s important and that’s number one priority. i wish i could travel back in time and change myself in both college and school, where it started in hallways and classrooms, splitting people in timid and cool. but it’s all in my hands from here on, in social circles, workplace and online spaces, i’ll make sure i’ll learn how to say ‘no,’ and stand my ground, defending myself in all of these places.
