I'm not very good at...

1. Algebra.
2. Doing things the long/hard way.
3. Keeping in touch (i.e., answering the phone).
4. Talking/walking/typing/driving/doing anything slowly.
5. Staying in today and keeping my mind on present things.
6. Being nice to myself.
7. Learning things the easy way.
8. Convincing myself of anything good about myself. This is a very bad quality.

However, I do have some strong qualities.

1. Sight-reading music.
2. Making other people laugh (I'm not funny. I just laugh at something and people laugh at the fact [and the way] that I'm laughing).
3. Organizing everything I have.
4. Listening.
5. Forgiving.
6. Being prompt and on-time.
7. Learning things the hard way. Hey, at least I learn.
8. Convincing myself of anything good about someone else. This is a very good quality.


Today, instead of nagging at myself for the flaws I see and the character defects I need to change, I will focus on what's right about me. And when I'm done with that, 9.4354839 seconds from now, I will focus on making someone else's day brighter. That always makes me happy.

  1. You forgot being a swell friend in the strong qualities section.

    And also, I think not learning things the easy way is a strong point. People that learn things the hard way, learn them that much better! And the lesson stays with them a lifetime. :D
