Stubborn

     You have made up your mind and don't want to budge.  You have confidence that your beliefs are correct, and you feel you have good reasons to think and behave the way you do.  You stick to your guns.  Perhaps you are set in your ways and like things just the way they are.  No one is going to push you around.  Being stubborn can be seen as an asset.
     However, if you turn off your ears, eyes, and mind to change, you may continually go down a wrong or dangerous path, not realizing or admitting better choices exist.  Mental and physical health may deteriorate.  Relationships may suffer if you can't compromise.
     On a lighter note, being stubborn may stop you from enjoying something new, from expanding your horizons and making your life more interesting and rewarding.  If you keep your eyes, ears, and mind open, you enable yourself to change.
     Change may involve taking a risk you don't want to take.  Fear may be involved.  Emotions may cause you to want to just stay in your familiar situation.  Don't be so stubborn that you become your own worst enemy.
