What are little ways you practice not settling for less than what you truly want?

For example, do you politely send back a meal not prepared to your liking at a restaurant? Kindly decline romantic advances from strangers who don’t meet your standards?

How do you honor your truest desires?

Will ask to remake it. Often I get a free meal without asking or at least a discount.

Only if it still is not made right afterwards will I decline it.

I don't consider it settling for less. Nothing is "precisely" as you might want. Same goes for dates. No one is perfect either.
