Self Audit

Damien over at 2 Cents Down Under recently did a post about a Self Audit his psychologist made him do. It's a very interesting exercise: You choose 10 positives - 10 negatives - three things to work on - and then a final word you would hope others perceive you as. He challenged other bloggers to do this too.

Here is my contribution:

10 Positive Traits of Me:

  1. Caring
  2. Kindness
  3. Fairness
  4. Accepting
  5. Adventurous
  6. Listener
  7. Creative
  8. Affectionate
  9. Passionate
  10. Loyal to friends

10 Negative Traits of Me:

  1. Highly critical of myself
  2. Critical of others sometimes
  3. Unforgiving
  4. Some OCD traits
  5. Not letting people get too close to me
  6. Laziness
  7. Moody
  8. Not very trusting of others
  9. Holding a grudge
  10. Not very communicative sometimes

3 Things To Work On:

  1. Not being so harsh on myself
  2. To not be so obsessive about things that don't matter
  3. Be more optimistic

One Word I Would Hope Others Would Use For Me:
Passionate

What are yours?
