My post for the day- What would you change about yourself?
I've gotten better as I've gotten older but I wish I was more assertive/aggressive. I see people who can say exactly what's on their mind and I'm so envious of them. I always worry about how things will sound, don't want to rock the boat, etc.
I also wish I wasn't such a big procrastinator. I make myself crazy when I know there is no need to.
Re: My post for the day- What would you change about yourself?
- skinnier (don't we all wish that!)
- more athletic- I wish I had a go-to sport that I could actually play without making a fool of myself. I've started embracing my athletic awkwardness, but it'd be nice to have a little talent
- socially comfortable- I've started to get more social anxiety the older I get. I'm not really sure the reason for this, but I wish I could feel comfortable in all social settings like I used to back in the day.
- I go through periods of shyness. I'd change that completely and get back to where I was before I moved.
- My HUGE periods of negativity. Sometimes I wonder if its due to a thyroid issue or low blood sugar, but seriously - if I don't eat every 2-3 hours, I turn into a whiny-butt and hate the world. Not cool, I'd totally change that. If I wake up that way, it lingers unless I stuff my face and go for a long run or bike ride.
- Motivation. Its sad to say, but I wish I would stop procrastinating and get some motivation to be "on it" again. I think my job has a lot to do with it. When I love my job, I'm on top of everything. When I'm in a "eh" period with work... not so much. It'd be nice to balance that out.
- more willing to take career risks
- better public speaker and not get so anxious
- spider veins! i really really hate them.
- I wish I had the ability to settle....I make drastic changes at the drop of a hat just because I'm not happy in that moment. I have yet to regret one of those decisions but I worry that DH will get sick of my impulsiveness lol
- I wish I enjoyed cleaning/caring for my home. I was raised with a maid and I've never learned how to budget my time when it comes to household chores. Instead of learning this quality DH and I have agreed that when I go back to work we're hiring a maid lol (we're ridiculous)
I would be less of a b*tch.
I'm totally serious, by the way.
I'm normally very nice, but I can be downright rude (and vulgar, and mean, and pissy) when the mood hits me.
I also wish I didn't obsess about medical issues. I have an appointment coming up on Monday and I have sat here and visualized every possible outcome like eighteen million times and it's not going to change anything.
