    What do you really admire about yourself?

    Look at yourself and think about what would you consider as being the best things about your personality and who you are

    Nobody elses, just yours own. What do you really like in your attitude and what personal behaviour/habits do you really admire?

    I like my ability to listen, to weigh up situations logically and make informed decisions, I like my ability to be diplomatic and fair and I like the way I communicate.

    I reckon I'm reasonably openminded, I also think I've got great ability for using my own life and personal experience to help people without being patronising. I sometimes think I look pretty damn good too :)

    Oh I can do this...would you believe that I don't ever have bad days. No matter how terrible things get, I'm always in a great mood. So I admire that about myself...:)

    I would consider compassion and honesty to be my two greatest virtues.

    Having an opinion on yr self-esteem is a bad way to go: People who say they have low self-esteem are usually right, and people who say they have high self-esteem are usually annoying holiday reps.

    My main self-esteem deal is knowing I'm quite attractive, which I guess puts some people off me. I spent fucking ages as a kid thinking I was ugly and worthless, then when I was about 17-18 I decided that maybe everyone who kept telling me I was cute might be onto something, and just bowed to sheer weight of public opinion.

    After my long list on my negative aspects I'd better balance it out!

    I also am a good listener and I think it is 'such a thing'. To have the abiltiy to let someone talk is quite a rare trait, most people are too busy listening to the sound of their own voice.

    I'm very patient with people.
    My intuition is very strong and reliable.
    I like helping people if I can.
    I won't put up with shit from people.
    I'm easy going.
    I like to laugh!
    I enjoy life 98% of the time.
    I'm a hard worker.
    I can adapt to nearly all situations.
    I'm tactfully honest. :X
    I love the fact that I can look at a tree and feel love.
    I love that I have so much love for the Dok :)
    I can see the good in everyone but won't let that colour my opinion of them as a whole person.
    I like that I can trust life to teach me what I need to learn.
    Even though I feel very comfortable in myself and am strong spiritually I know I still have much to learn and experience and in no way feel superior.

    I should probably stop now :D

    And when small mammals see it, they imprint on it and think it's their mom. So far, I have 3 muskrats, 5 squirrels and a wombat that follow me around wherever I go.

    I also get the urge to detune your bass with the other hand, to see if my favourite bassist anecdote is true.

    well first i must agree, the dok is honest....maybe not tactfully so but still honest.... he he:p

    and big up sam(earthwhilrler) tis true she is wonderful in bed;)

    back to the question...hmmm id have to say my empathy and compassion, although my empathy can hurt like hell sometimes, but it helps so much to be able to feel what someone/thing is feeling at that time. also my ability to get over things quickly and leave them behind....ok so maybe i don't do that all the time...but still!:rolleyes:

    Well hey, I never listed tact amongst my virtues! Although having said that, if you knew some of the things that went through my head but were never uttered, you might realise I have far more tact than you think ;)
