Self-criticism - what is your worst flaw?

Question

I've written the letter I've read in front of the other members that despite my promises, my dedication and work haven't been enough, that I haven't given as much care and attention to people as much I proposed myself to, that too often I haven't been as patient, considerate and helpful to others as I should be.

Procrastination and self doubt. I have the brains and the potential to do far more then I'm doing (and have been told as much by many people) but I doubt myself and I have an issue where my brain and thoughts go faster then my ability to acquire a skill making me far more likely to abandon projects and goals before I can actually master them and gain the skills required to see my vision through. That is in fact what fuels the procrastination because dreaming is easier then doing and I know that their will be much failure and time I have to waste learning the basics before I can get to the things I actually want to do, so I stall and procrastinate.

Not my only flaw, but one of the biggest ones I need to overcome.

That I am too nice to people and sugarcoat things too much. I need to quit treating people with kid gloves and really just tell them how it is. If they are messed up I need to just be completely blunt about them being messed up and not care if I hurt their feelings.

Being an INFP-T personality, having anxiety and weird depressive episodes but it’s because of my personality type that I created strong bonds with certain people and animals and when I am alone I either cry, hate myself or feel abandoned even if I’m not (I’m not a clingy person by nature nor am I a big social butterfly) but it’s hard when I’m such an idealistic person ( A trait also carried by my personality type) and have been for years on end, I don’t think it’s really possible to change anymore without ruining myself or hurting others around me.

That I give good advice, but forget to always follow it myself.. That after so long of talking care of others, putting everyone else first, I forget to take care of myself...

Cathy7734 · Answer

My worst flaw is I have a negative attitude about relationships and that's why I don't have any relationships, with the exception of my dog. It seems to me that most everyone is so self-absorbed and self-centered that they can't see beyond their nose unless they want something from you. I have a bunch more negative attitudes about relationships too. I wish I wasn't this way. I won't go out on Friday night because I don't want my dog to spend all that time alone in the house.

Ukrainianbuddafly · Answer

I've been hurt a lot and was also in a long term abusive relationship. The hardest thing I'm working on is enforcing boundaries and also not thinking everything is a red flag. Oh also communication.. I've been led to believe speaking about feelings or enforcing your boundaries etc will cause friction

muscularbumblebee · Answer

Worst flaw- I’m quite extreme with everything

Say if I have a goal I tend to take things too far to the point it goes out of hand, health eating? Hell yes, staying hard? The harder the better. But to the point it is harmful

Like an all or nothing personality trait and if I have a new hobby I jusp from hobby to hobby too

TrulyPink28 · Answer

Flaws... quite a philosophical topic you've got here. What makes a flaw a flaw which in fact may only need some training and a small bit of direction?

Siren777 · Answer

I don't take shit from anyone. A no BS & no drama type of person. I can easily cut off people and not care. Thing is I can be super sweet, kind and lovely but one step over my boundaries & I become someone not meant to be messed with.

dhinchak · Answer

I don't know when to give up. And when it's too late, I get trapped in the mindset of winning it all back with one masterstroke, which sadly and logically never happens - either the masterstroke or the quantum of win falls short.

Pulseofsulfur · Answer

Lack of confidence within myself and I can't say the words I want to say when I'm under pressure. My social anxiety is tending to act up in big functions or potentially when I try go on a date. Then dealing with ADD on top of that is a problem that I have to deal with daily

Accidentally interrupting people when they talk and shyness (I'm not too shy. I can still talk to people). Some other flaws of mine include sometimes being pessimistic and being too anxious at times

certifiedalphafemale · Answer

I get choosy when it comes to talking to people despite being a social butterfly. That’s because I’m a straightforward person. When someone I don’t like talks to me, I directly say “Please leave me alone!”.

Anonymous · Answer

I overthink all the time. Since I can see all the possibilities of the outcomes it puts my brain in state of overuse and I occasionally have trouble making decisions

I intellectuallize everything instead of acting on emotion. Some women don’t like that at all and it has cost me more than 1 relationship. That’s ok-who needs the drama?
