describing yourself
« on: August 15, 2017, 07:08:21 am »
people give others compliments now and then.
they tell someone that they are kind or generous or thoughtful......
if someone were to ask you to describe your character or personality, would you be able to tell them your faults?
we are often critical of ourselves and distort things.

I wouldn't know where to begin in listing my faults!  I guess my biggest fault is my impatience.
Have a wonderful day!

I am like Temperance booth on bones She doesn't have a filter in what she says and neither do I. that would be one of my main faults other than impatience.

I'm completely aware of the ways that I'm unique.  I've studied Tarot so I know that I have a "Judge Judy" in me where I can be very intolerant of certain types of crap.  I also have a very sweet lady within myself who loves animals and is very kind, vulnerable and considerate.

If I feel I could be taken advantage of or walked on - I shut it down.   :heart:

I'm a controller, but I've been working on that. I'm also somewhat of a loner.

I would be able to list my faults. I think it is easy for all of us to look at things about ourselves that we don't like verses looking at the good in ourselves.

I could certainly describe my faults to someone.  Although I don't think I would appreciate it much if they were describing them to me.  Just the other day one of my bosses came down with a sheet for our department to work on as a group...she described it as an opportunity to tell each other what faults are.  After looking at the sheet I realized it was a worksheet... likely for her to fill out to give her a guide on what our department needs to work on as a whole...not a loop hole to criticize one another.  Just giving us the sheet with her explanation was enough to set one gal off.  Clearly... not an opportune way to go about describing one another's faults.

I can name my faults if judgement comes from others (personally) then they are not true to themselves with their faults.
I worry way too much as I have anxiety but I worry about minor things that just irritate myself to no end! I cannot stand change in my personal life. Routine and system make my life easy (bothers my husband). I have a big mouth when it comes to people that lack manners/respect for others. I would say those are my biggest flaws.

I'm lucky i have one no to judge me for faults but my dog, i'm not close enough to people to care what they think any more.  My dog thinks i'm wonderful and perfect.

Hard to see your own faults easy to see in orhers.one thing looking around my house is I'm messy need to try harder in cleaning up after myself.  Try to pretend I'm a neat freak  doesn't work.

I don't know. I feel my personality is too inconsistent to be described

I know I have faults and try to  be better, but I do have a habit of saying what I mean, when pushed too far. I do tend  to push myself beyond my limits and then get  hurt because of it. Never give up is my motto, and yes I overdo on what I am doing. But on the other hand I love children and they seem to know it, I don't  warm up to a lot of people quickly but will hold back  judging so guess that is a fault, but when you have been hurt or used  a person tend s to do that.

No one is perfect and has flaws.
