What do you like about yourself and what do you hate about yourself?

[Simslover92]

I like my creativity but I hate my procrastination. It makes it hard for me to be creative and write new things. I'm a writer but have major writer's block right now and my procrastination just makes it worse.

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

I don't hate anything.

Really, lol

I do procrastinate but I don't hate it because... I still get things I wish for done, not on time, not quickly, but done, and most of all, pleasantly, done. Because I'm not in a hurry, could be because of my age range? Time flies and I'm at middle of the road so if I'm speeding up I fear getting too soon to the end, subjectively?

And there are also spiritual, and political, standpoints I carry. Spiritually, I cannot accomplish great things because I'm just a pixel in the air, just like this planet, in my eyes. So not much pressure felt. And politically, I dislike this idea that productivity has to go on, at all costs. It's not the world I want to live in, so, pushing it to the maximum, I view procrastination as a political act lol.

I like my great memory but I also remember all the bad things like they just happened. I have PTSD from being beat at a kid.

[Simslover92]

Oh wow I'm so sorry.

[PessicaJeter]

I like my dry sense of humor and high intellect, but I hate how I cannot help but to overthink things , and my inability to focus for long periods of time without great effort due to my adhd.

I love my self confidence. I sometimes hate my introversion though because many people misunderstand me and feel hurt by my actions...

[Simslover92]

Same here. I am growing more self confident in myself which I love but I do also hate my introversion for the very same reason.

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

I'd like an example of how introversion hurts here, what kind of misunderstandings, please?

[7Phoenix7]

@Maybe_Maybe_not

For example, sometimes I can be very quiet. Just because I like to sit and observe. But there have been times when others have misunderstood that as me being disinterested or stuck up. So many people have told me, "i thought you were stuck up at first."
Or sometimes my friends feel like I don't want to be around them and I don't like spending time with them. When really I just need my alone time to recharge.

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

I relate lol, and that's inevitable okay, I'm very used to face this perception of stuck up. At this point, I'm even playing with the false messages I can send but that's me

[Beckybooboo]

@7Phoenix7 Same here. People would think I didn't like them or was stuck up because I was extremely shy. Then when I was more comfortable around them and became more outgoing and talkative, they thought I was on drugs lol

[7Phoenix7]

@Beckybooboo exactly, see you understand...
They definitely called me crazy once I opened up too 😅

[7Phoenix7]

@Maybe_Maybe_not I figured you were an introvert

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

Haha well, I don't really subscribe to the binary introvert/extrovert system. I find these concepts... Shady, I don't know, they can help in grasping the profile of someone overall but it's also a way to force someone or ourselves into a box. And I tend to suffocate fast, in a box. So maybe I'm more claustrophobic than introvert 😂

Also, I have a theory, about this place, GaG attracting an abnormal amount of people we could identify as introverts? Due to how the platform, by design, puts our personal thoughts and questions onto a pedestal

[AI Opinion]

I understand your situation. Embrace your creativity; it's a valuable asset. To combat procrastination and writer's block, consider allocating specific times for writing, where you focus on brief prompts or free writing. Break tasks into smaller, manageable pieces to avoid overwhelming yourself. Taking regular breaks and changing your work environment can also stimulate creativity. Remember, writing is both art and practice, and consistent small efforts can lead to significant breakthroughs. Reflect on why you enjoy writing and let that motivation guide you.

[PeachyPie93]

I like how I can pass any test that I take without studying. I hate how unmotivated and depressed I can get for the majority of things.

[sage2021]

I like that I am a truly good person unlike a lot of people these days.
I don't hate anything about myself. What's to hate if I am a good person?

[ohsheeT]

I love that I don't hate myself that no matter what I have balance in my life

[Agape93]

I like my protectiveness. I hate my complete lack of self love.

[Anonymous]

I try to be real in the most humble way possible, but the very same thing makes me naive and overtly empathic.

[talka20]

Not as a writer but my main answer is same as your... creative but procrastinating

[Shiprex]

My resilience and ability to stay calm in difficult situations

[Bklynbadboy12]

I like that I go hard for the people I care about and I hate that I have the ability to disassociate myself from people and things very easily

[jahaims]

I don't hate anything about myself. If I hated something about myself I would change it.

[msc545]

I love my intelligence, but I hate my tendency to procrastinate.

[NathanDavis]

I'm genuine...

[NathanDavis]

I don't like my height... lol

[Simslover92]

Aren't like 6 feet lol

[Simslover92]

Aren't you Iike 6 feet lol?

[NathanDavis]

I am six feet and one inch... I hate that one extra inch

[Simslover92]

Oh brother lol

[Simslover92]

Lots of guys would kill to be your height.

[NathanDavis]

I don't need it... and it's very annoying to type the extra symbol...

[Simslover92]

Still it's better than 5 foot 1 which some guys are.

[NathanDavis]

that height would be about great for a gymnast... or a jockey

[Simslover92]

But most guys would hate it

[NathanDavis]

I would be like Kevin Hart instead... lol

I like my imagination, and I also don't like my procrastination.
