Generally, I don’t like to debate. Debating to me means arguing. Where there is arguing there is stress. Although I don’t like arguing or dealing with stress I will without a doubt stand up for what I believe in. I would say that my weakness in debating is having the patience to explain myself to other people. I have an attitude which reflects that if you don’t understand where I’m coming from then that’s too bad for you, and not my problem. My strength is that I don’t crack easily, I don’t tend to give in just because someone on an opposing side has good points. I take them into consideration but reassure myself that I need to stand by what I believe is right. I have confidence in what I believe in, which is a strength, but don’t always understand why I feel so strongly about issues as I do, which is a weakness. When this happens I get over passionate and too worked up about the issue. Debating is essential in society to see other sides of issues, but also creates disagreements. Debating is really a love-hate issue.
