If you could change....

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be???

What a thought provoking question!

Hmm…one thing about myself? Hard to think of one - there is so much! Probably I would like to change my perfectionism so that I can be happy with who I am instead of always being at war with myself.

I would like to change the way I communicate with others, I'm extremely passive and others- centered.....and people get bored speaking with me because I am not 'to the point'..more emotion based....I have gone through many, many failed jobs, failed relationships...basically my way of communicating has ruined my life.

I would like to conquer my social fears. I am working on them and it seems possible.

My mortality.

Nick Nose....I am with you about conquering my social fears as well...

To not be so fearful in general.

too many ... but one would be not to feel so lost at times. the uncertainty of myself, which would connect to acceptance of self. sorry if that is two or three? but in a way it is all one

Give myself a high metabolism so I could eat whatever I want and stay skinny.

Have more confidence in myself

Quite provoking! Hmm... I would change a lot of things about myself, sadly. The one thing I would really like to change right now would be my fear of heights. We have an eighth grade field trip to Six Flags coming up and I'm going... sadly my fear of heights is preventing me from riding on any coasters anytime soon.

Can I put another--

I wish I could change -- the part of me that I am not able/capable of talking with people when I am emotional-- I can tend to write it out, and do revisions, and can communicate that way but to do the actual talking... it is so hard, and I keep trying but I keep failing at it as well... Some letters never get sent out when they should be as well..

I would like to change the way I act on impulse rather than really thinking things through. Even if I thought I have been thinking about certain things rationally. Sometimes misjudgement or overemotional behaviour clouds my reality. Instead I would like to be able to properly see things and contemplate things for how they are in the moment. Instead of always truly see things for how they were later. Like what I mean is, if only I could have realized or see that soon. Instead of being so caught up in my constant thoughts and emotions that just run around in my head getting in the way.

I would ask for faster/stronger problem solving skills

I wish I could talk in an uninterrupted stream without pausing and umming and ahhing.

I wish I was prettier. I wish I was real smart, like crazy smart.

My high sensitivity and thin-skinned confidence. I mean, I've learn over the years to just ignore rude people, however sometimes those people are just out to hurt only you and just seem to completely HATE you...mostly because they hate themselves.
And most of the time the same thing has happened to them.

confidence

Penis size.

My over thinking tendencies and perfectionism.

My teeth and hair. I would get cosmetic dentistry done, and hair implants for thicker hair. Change my personality to be more like my late sister's....stubborn, strong and determined.

procrastination

To not put all my self-worth in academic achievement.

I would change my procrastination take action sooner.

Right now, I hate the sound of people chewing things - gum and crisps are the absolute worst. I get very angry and leave the room so I don't hit things.
I would change this, so it didn't bother me so much!

I'm new here.

If I could change one thing about myself it would be.......... (can't be my location, can it? LOL), well I guess it would be my lack of seeing something through to the end, basically accomplishing a goal (was doing Tai Chi, totally stopped after a while though I did enjoy it).
