What are some things (personality/qualities) that you would like to change about yourself?

Physical and non-alterable traits don't count.

I would love to be more patient, especially when it comes to restraining my tongue. Since I began working where I currently work, it's easy to get short tempered and say something unkind about somebody who is perpetually a problem. It never gets me into trouble because I don't say it to the wrong people, but it's something that I wish I had better reign on.

I'd like to be more motivated to pick up after myself - I'm not a slob but I've got a lot more clutter lying around than I wish I did.

I wish I wasn't so lazy - seriously, it screws me up. Confidence in myself would be great too.

You're not lazy in everything though, I know that. Are there particular things you wish you could be less lazy in?

Motivation for school - and to workout. I've become complacent with myself, and it's not good. Some friends of mine have so much drive to learn, and better themselves - I wish I had that.

increased motivation/decreased laziness. Really, I feel that's the only thing holding me back from doing pretty much anything I want.

Patience when dealing with morons would be a plus for me. I also am a little too aggressive and confrontational at times:(

I just want back two things that severe lack of sleep and overwork have caused me to lose, my quick wit, and my ability to speak elloquently.

Faith. I definitely need help there. I'd like to be a lot less insecure as well, it would stop my running back to the compensatory brash-ness and feigned arrogance. It seems like anything that I'm not good at I just dismiss as unimportant and stupid. Did it with God (bad idea), did it with HR, still fighting with it on how to relate to people.

Oh lord it's hard to be humble when your perfect in every way! To know me is to love me! I keep getting better each day!

Hehe just kidding.... I think I would have to go with confronting people better... Like being able to put my foot down when my roommates owe me rent....
