Lucy, this is perhaps one of the most profound comments I've read on this site and the reason... the depth of verity and the constancy with which it is applied to each and every one of us, even though I know you were kidding, missus

Well, you could do something to change the first one and that might change the outcome with the last two. But what you do in your sleep is not during consciousness so you receive a get out of jail free card for those activities.

Right now it's lack of time.
Overall, its fear, judgmentality, and ego.
They are the big three that harm my life.

Though I do have to say that if I stapled my mouth shut, most of my problems would disappear instantly.

You can make some extra cash when those OCD moments strike.
The second one is a virtue.
The third you are not responsible for since you are unconscious.
And for the last one, do you get hyper after all that sugar?

This is a topic that I do not like to look at, but as a Buddhist it is part of my self evolution. So with that said my major flaw is treating incompatant leaders in my chain of command with contempt. It is difficult for me to work with "leaders" that do not know how to lead. As expected this did not make me very popular with those so called leaders. Now this is not by far my only flaw, but it is one that has caused me the most self inflicted pain.

I like this game.

I often don't consider how others feel, in that regard I'm self centered.

I struggle with coming to terms that I have a submissive side. Not that being submissive is bad, or that the struggle is unnatural, but I don't deal with it in healthy ways. I hardly ever discuss it, and often bottle it up.

I disregard spiritual and emotional explanations too easily. In essence, I have a small iron heart.

I'm naturally lazy. I only like tasks which are challenging, and feel simple tedious exercises are beneath me. It's not true, and I know it.

I fear commitment, but also settle down. This forms a paradox which feeds on broken hearts.

I judge people.

I have a curse... I can quickly tell how my relationships will end, which probably causes a self fulfilling prophecy instead of just jumping in with both feet and enjoying life.

I'm naturally shy. I force myself to be outgoing.

I'm short, only 5'4'' which is tiny for a man, and balding at the age of 23. Its not a terrible flaw, because I can't wait to be bald... I just didn't want it to start in high school

.

ummmmmm... I'm moody in the mornings too. I'm sure the list goes on and on, but that's enough to volunteer without a specific vein of flaws to explain.

I'm a perfectionist, I'm over analytical, and I expect to much of other people because I judge others on the same scale that I judge myself.

I'm impatient and have absolutely no time for stupidity.
I lose my temper easily but on a good note i never stay mad long and rarely hold a grudge hehe

I think my biggest flaw in a relationship view tho.... I do not get emotionally attached to others easily.

OMG!! You could almost be describing me!

Although I don't lose my temper that easily, not noticably anyway. Usually it just simmers underneath until I look at it and deal.

I am, in my eyes, terribly lazy and I procrastinate so well I should be a professional.

I can be very selfish, or very generous. It depends upon the expectations or lack thereof, of the other person/s.

I can be very cold and calluse. Almost frighteningly so. Someone from my previous life, many many years ago, said if not for my family connections, I should become a hitman. Not exactly a glowing compliment. Yet I can come close to crying over an innocent hurting, very weird duality.

I am not very religioun friendly and far too outspoken about my personal views. It tends to set people back.

I am not the most friendly person unless I like you, or have put on my happy face. (the social thing)

I prefer to avoid most social gatherings, especially if it is "expected" of me.

I am far too obstinate when it comes to getting my own way. The term "cut off your nose to spite your face" fits me all too often.

I intimidate people, even when I don't really want to.

Annnnnnnnd, my obnoxious sense of humour isn't always appreciated by others.

Occasionally my flaw is thinking that I have no flaws.

Job interviewers love hearing words of shallow depth such as these.

I think I'm not able to answer this clearly and succinctly...and that's a problem!

Shows maybe a little lack of self awareness.

I spend some time "introspecting" and thinking about my relations to others, etc....

One thing I'm lacking is people who will give me brutally honest (and accuracy would be nice, too...) feedback. I think you sometimes need that perspective from others.

At this point, mostly I've surrounded myself with people who are very nice, which is great, except that they tend to butterscotch me.

This is what I would pay a therapist for. If I weren't so cheap. (I don't think of that as too bad a flaw though, as I feel I'm tight, but not miserly.)

I also tend to learn just enough to be marginally competent in something, and then stop learning about it.

I get easily frustrated by failure.
I've tried some artistic endeavors in the past, for example, where the first efforts weren't very good. So; though they showed some promise, I shut the whole thing down because the repeated frustration factor of it not coming out *perfectly* wasn't any fun for me.

Since then I've come to realize that you have to do rough sketches, demos, studies, planning, etc. and keep doing it over (and freaking over), until you get it right.
I've come by that lesson late, and probably quit as often as I've put that into actual practice, though.

While I have some equilibrium and harmony in my life, I often achieve it by balancing extremes. For instance, I can't just drink one or two cups of coffee a day; I've got to either overdo it or not do it at all. I do have the discipline to quit, though, so I take turns bouncing between the two extremes.

I think opne of my more problematic flaws is that I feel a need to carry the weight of the world on my shoulders. I juggle things with fingers and toes and eventually when I become too encumbered and cannot maintain order I tend to drop everything and then play clean up.

This can be a very large problem depending on how many issues are financial that I am carrying at the time, Where as I can clean up the Emotional and the Physical the Financial tend to want to be paid NOW and no one cares how much you got only what you are supposed to give them.

I have not done this in a long time but even looking at what I got going now I see myself doing it again but I do not see how to let someone else deal with it, there are just some things that I perfer to handle and the other things are things that others perfer that I handle.

Other Flaws are Occasional Arrogance which can at times be a defense mechanism for a lower than projected self esteem, I offten think I know better than those that are my superior and I have to keep constant check of my mouth otherwise I find when I let it out I tend to get fired.

I also expect other people in my life to move at my pace which can at times be Break Neck Speed or being passed by Snails.

I don't have an Off Button. Wish I did.... but I don't.... Trust me I've checked.

My Biggest Flaw is that I am Human and as such suffer from the Human Condition of being Flawed and not caring about my own flaws but often seeing others.

All of these I work on a little at a time but sometimes need to be reminded of.

My biggest flaw is being a man out of time. What I mean by that is that I fiercely believe in ideas such as male ran house holds, chivalry when applicable, honor, being held to ones word.

It seems that these idea are out of date in this me first, technolgical, A.D.D., over stimulated culture.

Yet I can't let them go. So I am flawed.

im completely disorganised.
i hate forms of any sort and will go out of my way to avoid them
i day dream ALOT
i KNOW im supposed to be doing something, but i find an excuse every time
i have one of those tempers that burns really hot for a short time and then goes out with an audible 'phut'.
i have all the time in the world for doing nothing important and no time left for anything else.

the list could go on, but im late to collect my UM and i still havent hoovered the sitting room or washed up yet.

Hmmm. I tend to be too passive, even when I need to be assertive.

I'm told that I am too hard on myself but IMO that doesn't make sense, I should always hold the highest standards for myself if I expect any kind of standards from others.

Lately I haven't been planning my time well. At all well.
