To yourself you may be but you cannot tell other people how they must perceive you; their perception of you is their own. How we use our words can be very powerful and forms habits. If you think of yourself as strange and weird, then you get in the habit of thinking of yourself that way and you cannot as easily break a habit, the more you engage in it.

My middle name use to be Danaher, a family name, and I use to call myself Damnither and decided that was not a good idea but had a heck of a time reprogramming my thinking so I would stop that.

Think and describe yourself how you would like to become; it's much more interesting and helpful?
