Can You Come Up With 30 Positive Attributes About Yourself?

Hi Wolfie, i told Hic off just yesterday for asking for everything in list of ten when he nicks his ten from somewhere else, with due credit given of course. Now you expect us to sit here and list 30, I just haven't got a full 7 minutes to spare old chap so try to pare your requirements down a bit in future. Now if I could just pass that list over to the kamaking fishermen down the road that would be much more fun.

Hi wolfie34 I was just going to answer your dicussion with a simple 'no' and leave it at that but that isn't fair!! It would have been funny though. I would find it extremely hard and I really don't know if I would give up but I would find it hard. If you think about it I am sure you would have found it just as hard to write down 30 negative things, or 30 things you like to do. A list of 30 things is surprisingly hard I think. When I was doing the 60 gifts for my mum's 60th this year was really really hard and I had started to put it together at least 8 months prior to her birthday!!

Hey my dearest bro! I know that there is no way that I could come up with 30! Maybe 10 at the most, but that would even be stretching it! And that would take me some time to come up with and then I would be done! I don't know anyone who could come up honestly with 30! I don't know anyone who is that nice! So I don't believe that you would be alone on this one! That's an awful lot of positivity even for the utmost positive person! I bet even your therapist couldn't have come up with that many either! You should have told her to list 30 herself!

Hi Wolfie. Could I do this? Yes, because I was given it as a "homework" assignment from a therapist just as you were. Was it easy? No, but it became easier as I became more specific. I would not hesitate to ask others for help with it. Studies have shown that when we suffer depression, we have a very "skewed" and negative view of ourselves that is not accurate. Give it another shot! Karen

Hi Wolfie, Wow 30 positive things about myself...I am not sure there are so many such things lol. If I were to undertake this task though I would definitely do it alone. I would feel like some strange attention seeking person if I randomly went up to my dad or brother and asked them to list reasons why I was amazing lol! I think they would wonder what was wrong with me too! I like the way your counsellor said to undertake the task though. It seems much more feasible when you do it on a daily basis. That said if I forced myself to remain seated at a desk in the peace and quiet over the whole night I could probably muster something up, with perseverance being high on the list lol! Nice question, I am curious too, how many did you manage before you gave up? Dranz

1.honest 2,smart 3.loyal 4.considerate 5.sympathy 6.humorous 7.kind ... I think you can help me to fill in the rest because I can't think out more for myself:) I love China

THIRTY THINGS? Are you SERIOUS? No, I definitely couldn't think of 30. I'm punctual, trustworthy, reliable, honest and loyal. That's about it, really. I don't have any special talents, don't care much about the way I look - and I haven't been a very good parent. I'm aware of my faults though, and for the past couple of years I've been far more positive and upbeat about things, and tried very hard not to bring others down by looking on the dark side. I'd definitely be too scared to ask family and friends to answer the question ... might get a rude shock!

really wolfie ,, blindfolded, backwards and climbing Everest ...i am impressed dear i dont think i can do it because what i believe is a positive attribute it is always rebuted ... eg. i am a simple person with jeans and t-shirt , and my in laws complain always so one day i really dressed to kill and put on all my jwelleries and they say i show off ... (no matter what, my attributs are considered otherwise and vice versa)

Only 30 wolfie someone like you must have more positives then negatives anyway ,easy task for someone like you,give him fifty at least.To help you out,thoughtful.kind.unasuming.handsome.sexy,well dressed,help stranger,eatwell,look afteryourself,there just a few from what I have gathered from your posts.

I could think of lots of good things about myself. And I would list them now: I'm honest, faithful to my boyfriend, a good singer, a hardworking employee, kind to my parents, and a fighter. I also have above-average intelligence (according to my IQ tests), I'm good at reading comprehension, I can speak 2 languages, I'm assertive, I'm kind, I value justice, I don't take the world for granted, I'm an energetic person, I know how to attract guys, I can take care of kids, I can play the piano, I have a good ear for music, I'm a college graduate, I earn my own money, I love myself, I know how to ride a bike, I do my own laundry, I have an open mind, I'm not gullible, I made someone fall in love with me, I value my true friend, I love my parents, I've changed my attitude and became a better person, and I always think that I have positive attributes. There! I just listed 30 positive things about myself.

Wolfie..I can definitely think of a positive one for you..."you are a joy to talk to, you are kind, grateful, and a sweetheart". Next to the list that you are doing for yourself..why don't you make a list of what other people think of you...I would bet that you get wonderful responses back. If I got turned off by your discussions, or the way you post them, if I felt you were a jerk..I would not be reponding to them, just for money. And I am sure many in here feel the way I do. We look forward to hearing from you.

Wow, this is something that I would definitely have an extremely hard time doing for myself. I have an easy time coming up with positive atttributes for other people that I know well, but I have a hard time thinking of even a few for myself. Naming some of the things, would make me feel almost, well, I don't know, selfish I guess? lol. I know that if I asked my family to help, they could easily come up with things, but I know I more than likely wouldn't agree with them lol.

I don't know if I even have 30 attributes but there are a few I could list right off the bat. 1. Creative outside the box thinker 2. logical outside the box thinker 3. Can work on my own or in a group 4. If I am assigned a task with particular job and find the job materials not available I look for alternative material. Sometimes that leads to innovative ideas, which might not have been though of before, if not for the mix. Other than that I feel pretty good about myself.

I'm smart I'm funny I'm smart I'm funny How'm I doing doc? It would be very hard. I'm not good at that at all...

wow. I am really hard on myself. I can be open to other peoples short coming but i never give my self a break. I sat and read your task. I am not sure how long it would take me to do a list of 30 positive things about myself. I mean I might need the whole month and hope I did not have days where I repeated the same thing from a different day. I would think about asking my family but beucase this is a means to help me see my self in a positive light that would be cheating. I think for me this task could be hard. I offten only focus on the neagtive I have done

well i understand wolfie, i too doubt about myself, writing up 30 positive things about ourself though may sound something easy initially but it can be a lot tougher... it may take me a lot of time.... i would like to ask my dear ones coz i can trust them...i definitely wouldn't like to cheat myself by writing something i am not, i would never do that, i will not feel good about it anytime... and the worst part is that sometimes you would wonder about yourself a lot when you are deciding something.... to be frank sometimes i feel like why am I being too sensitive at smaller issues, sometimes i really react spontaneously, i am sorry i can not account for such reactions, i can only hope people get along with me.... well talking about some positive attributes, these are the ones that i can write down about myself without much giving it a thought.... :) 1. I believe i am Good guy if not honest. 2. I am sensitive and that helps me out helping out my friends when they are in trouble. 3. I say i don't want to lie, coz i won't say i don't lie. 4. I am silent and sometimes people like me, something drives there attention towards me, i don't know why but sometimes i realize people pay attention to me.I think some people believe silent ones are nice ones, i guess it applies to me to some extent:) 5. LOL this is funny but i am a committing kind of guy, i want only one girl in my whole life..... with respect to others i don't know how this is supposed to sound like but to me it is a very good thing...HEHE. 6. I am a very very good listener I know, and all my friends agree.... and I like it too:) . . . . and there you go wolfie ... i can't write anymore now, maybe i will have to talk to my friends and family... but i don't want to put my head into it anymore....HEHE....m glad to respond to this discussion... have a nice day wolfie!

That's really an intriguing task. I don't know if I could come up with 30, but it might be fun to try, especially doing one a day. Based on what some of the other folks are saying about having negatives come up when trying to come up with positives, maybe a person could try to look at a negative differently. I know I sometimes will take something positive and spin it negatively, so why not the other way around. For example, I procrastinate. That's generally a pretty negative attribute, however, I could look at it in a more positive light by thinking that I like to plan things carefully. That way it'd be easier to actually move from planning to execution. Well, maybe anyway lolol

I'm sure I could easily come up with 2 or 3, but 30 is a bit too much. It would take a long time, and a lot of deep thinking. However, I would probably start feeling bad about myself in the middle. If I start listing my good points, I'll start thinking about my bad points, and why I cannot list certain attributes. Then, I will start thinking about morphing my personality...

Think of 30 attributes I like about myself? Ok um... 1. I am creative, 2. I am a good mom, 3. I am a humanitarian, 4. I am a good listener, 5. I am good at psychology, 6. I am a good friend, 7. I am a good girlfriend, 8. I am a good artist, 9. I am affectionate, 10, I am determined, 11. I am patient, 12. I am charitable, 13. I am reliable, 14. I am a hard worker, 15. I am dedicated, 16. I am smart, 17. I am athletic, 18. I am healthy, 19. I am honest, 20. I am always willing to help, 21. I am humorous, 22. I am playful, 23. I am realistic, 24. I am organized, 25. I am persuasive, 26. I am a leader, 27. I am a good person at heart, 28. I am a survivor, 29. I am kind, 30. I am worth it. Hey! Maybe it does work. I feel a lot better about myself now. Maybe I should start trying to look on the positive side of things. Been down lately cause I can't find a job even though I got a college degree and a lot of experience. Thanks for the tip.
