I do not get angry very fast.But if i do I become violent.I break and throw things and I do not look what is it I am breaking or on whom I am throwing things. I have broken flowervases, TV, mobile phones, glasses, paper weights to name a few. If I need to change something about myself I would like to change this temper of mine.Mylotters,I am sure you too would have something you would want to change.If yes, what is it you want to change?

I am very short tempered as well and I don't wait for an explanation, I just get angry and let it all out. This is something I would like to change about myself. I would also like to change my impatience. I am not a patient person and I need to learn to be more patient so I can understand things more.

I don't know, I'm not sure that I would change anything about myself. Okay, maybe I would change the fact that my mood is easily affected by outside influences and the fact that I am addicted to the internet and online forums like this place. But what the hay....it beats the winter blues!

There are so many thigns I would change but the one that stands out most is that my tolerance level is very low especially with people I think should not better. Because of this I get impatient with me too becuase I should have known better to be patient with others too.

I'm so timid at times so I wanna change that. What im doing now is socialize more with people and befriend more people. =) And, fortunately, it's working for me. If for physical appearances, I'd like to get my normal eyes back. My eyes are not really normal now for some reasons so I want them back. i can't really tell what happened to my eyes, it's quite complicated. ^_^ so, there, i wanna change my eyes and my shyness as well. =)

Like you too, I feel that I should be able to control my emotions, including my anger. Most of the times I try to remain cool and calm, but sometimes I lose my anger. I would like to be more patient. Another is..that I am not diplomatic and sometime I pay heavily for my honest opinion. Therefore, I would like to be more diplomatic when I face someone, so that I do not land in position to make him/her angry.

very amusing... i am short-tempered - silly things can get me angry easily... but... i dont get violent. most of the time - i get angry at my children - if i cant hold it... i'll start screaming like a "lady-tarzan". i also do not like to repeat myself - like when you tell your children to do something, or when you give instructions to your staff to do things... i do not like to have to repeat the requests - i want them done ASAP! in short... i am just not a very patient person... i was much worse when i was younger (without children)... but still - my short-temper is something that i would like to change - i want to be a lot more patient - especially with my children... plus, it's very stressful to be angry + lose your patience... dont you think?

I've never really wanted to change anything about myself honestly. You are who you are. and I guess if I had to change something though, it would be the stubborness that I have in believing I shouldn't change because I am who I am.

So far I can manage very well my tantrum situation. And I would like to have change to my current life is to have quality time management. As I came across one discussion on mylot about one idiom or proverb about saying 'time is gold'. That such words really remind me what I've learned in college previously about quality time management. As my age now is 35, a mother for three kids, I think I have to apply in my life for quality time management and must re-learned about this matter, thoroughly. Thanks, Lovelydame.

I would like to be a more confident person as I'm prone to letting people walk all over me and alot of my family and friends keep geting me to do things for them as they know I won't say no.

Iam havng very shy type of nature. Because of shyness in me Iam not able to take initiative in most of the cases. Even not able to communicate with others and feel uncomfortable during communication and so I usualy avoid any arguements/ Disscussions, though Iam right which refelects negative image of mine and make me looser.. Thats why I use to communicate with those peoples only who knows and understand me.If I can change any thing in me, than it will be my SHYNESS.

Given a chance, i would somehow change my tendency to become angry too soon. This short tempered nature of mine is the only thing that everyone hates in me and even i hate in myself too. But over these years, i have not at all been able to control it and lose my temper even for the silliest of the silliest things that is out of order. So getting this irritated too fast never helped me in life, i realize that. So i really want to change the character alone of mine.

I am a short-tempered person and I want to change it. I am working on it right now and I hope I'll eliminate that attitude of mine.
