    Best and Worst Traits

    What is your best personality triat? What's your worst?


    My worst is that I procrastinate. Sometimes to a fault. For Instance, I have to pay late fees all the time just because I don't pay bills on time or I'm late for something really important for no particular reason.

    My best is.....hmmmm? I can't think of one right now.

    Okay...I think my best trait is that I'm loyal. Once I care about someone I am very attached and loyal to them. Even if maybe I shouldn't be.

    I think how your traits are valued changes in different situations. For example, I'm analytical, and I can break problems down to make them easier to solve. This helps me understand my own emotions, but when I try it around other people, it can cause conflict because they don't think like that and their ideas don't line up with strict logical thinking like that.

    The trait I love most in myself is my way of thinking about things. It doesn't really matter what mood I'm in - I like being able to detach myself from my feelings and think about things logically. My mind's an interesting place to be, and it's nice to play in it when I've nothing to do.

    One of my least favourite traits is probably the other side of the same coin - I think too much to get anything done. I overthink people, so I never make the first move, and sometimes I think knowing the situation is more important than fixing it, so I can know I need to get better at something, but the progress stops there. I find it very hard to actually start doing something to, for example, boost my grades, or get housework done.

    My best: my insight to everything I can grasp, seeing things in different perspectives instead of black and white.

    My worst: this terrible laziness that brings out every negative attribute of mine.

    I agree with this so very, very much

    My Best: My lack of anger. To elaborate, I don't get angry easily, or stay for longer than a day, on average, and I never hold grudges

    My Worst: Like most posters in this thread, my pathological lack of motivation

    I think procrastination and lack of motivation could be the same thing. At least similiar.

    I got the same question on a college questionnaire; so I tried to be creative.

    Strength: aware of weakness.
    Weakness: aware of vodka.

    But on a more serious note, I can relate to most of the good traits AND the bad traits posted here. For instance, I'm inherently lazy and easily fall into that category of people who simply don't give a hoot. But where needed I can be quite the charming person, holding open doors and saying thank you and please while dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's.

    Last week I graduated as a computer programmer. Right now I'm trying to teach myself music theory. Yes, I'm off like that.
    And yesterday I had an interview at Wal-mart, and totally aced it.

    Oh the things I can do when I press the right buttons. <end of narcissistic rant/>

    Similar, yes, but not quite the same thing.
