You're lucky; I don't even get the stick!

I think maybe you should build your self-confidence, and try to chip away at that obvious chip on your shoulder.  Be a little more aggressive in your dealings with others, but be kindly aggressive.  In other words, speak up for what you feel is right and what you believe in, but don't tear others down.  If you pretend to be confident, a strange thing will happen, and you will actually feel confident.  Others will pick up on it too, and they will have more respect for you, and before you know it, that 75% will be on the long end.  Try it, it works!

I know exactly how you feel.  It's pretty terrible.  I just remember that I have a group of people who I am very close to and a great family, and that any situations in which I do end up with the short end of the stick are insignificant.  Because while it does totally suck to feel unlucky and short-ended, it feels better to know that my support system is always there to laugh at my situation with me or console me when it gets hard.

I hope you have a similar situation.  Just remember, even if you don't: these times always pass.  Nothing is forever and things always seem to get better eventually :)

never > you just need to rethink things by changing a negative attitude into a positive one.

• Harbor no hatred in your heart.

• Rid your mind of anything that is causing you to feel bad > anger, depression, negativity, etc.

• live simply

• give more

• expect less
