Three "Yays":

♥ I am a very loving person to every single person I come across, no matter the background or context in which I meet them.
♥ I am rather intelligent and well-versed with words.
♥ I love to laugh, and can laugh at almost anything.

Three "Nays":

♥ I am absolutely a pushover.
♥ I am not confident in who I am, and I am always trying to escape being myself.
♥ My worth feels entirely dedicated to who seems interested in me, both romantically and in a platonic way.

@Cadence Okay, I'll go...

Yays

-I am always me and don't really care what people think about me being me.

-I do not fear. Firsthand, I have experienced dying and I have experienced the suffering and joy of living. Without fear, I am free and not intimidated no matter the size of my troubles. That said, I have generally learned the wisdom and perspective to choose my battles.

-I was able to go from being the sort of patient caregivers avoided to being well-liked by my caregivers because I have learned the importance of unconditional kindness, patience, and humor.

Nays

-I care so little about myself that I do not always remember to eat, sleep, and survive and my stress is always sky-high. I tend to over-commit myself to friends, patients/work, acquaintances, the pursuit of knowledge, and various causes. Spread too thin, I am no good to anyone.

-Cognitive dissonance is my middle name. Despite that I devote my entire life to helping people, even at my own peril, I actually don't like people and refuse to let people get close to me. I have to constantly remind myself why I do what I do and why it is so important for me to care anyway.

-I am so quiet that if people interrupt or speak over me, I simply say nothing. This is both good and bad. It triggers and annoys me greatly when others speak over and interrupt me. When it happens, I tend to become mute. On the plus side, the fewer words I speak, the more people tend to value the words I do say. I suppose as I move up into management roles at work, I will need to get better at dealing with those situations but I am not sure if I can change that about myself, since nonverbal is my default setting.

Yays❣

⌘ I am fostering cute kitties ♥

⌘ I'm super close to achieving my academic and professional goals

⌘ I'm a pro at making rugs and could probably sell them for money tbh

Nays❣

⌘ I still have bad days sometimes

⌘ The cost of achieving my academic and professional goals is my mental health

⌘ My S.O. is moving in two and a half months and it's not really plausible to do long distance

Three Yays...

I laugh a lot, for absolutely no reason!
I can play the trumpet, which is always a pretty good conversation starter!
I'm compassionate, which sometimes gets in the way of me doing stuff like homework, but it's okay! I'd rather be compassionate over being a straight A student, anyways!

Three Nays...

I need to get better at making and especially enforcing personal boundaries.
I need to learn how to actually do self-care stuff better.
I need to learn how to be more confident, about pretty much everything.

Anggi February 16th, 2016

This is such a great thread! Thank youuu @MonBon for tagging me (:

My Three Yays

I'm getting better at picking myself back up every time I'm down.

I have two superbly amazing best friends that I'm truly grateful to have in my life.

I'm a listener at 7 Cups! heart

My Three Nays

I'm so introverted that if you don't know me well you'll think I'm very quiet and shy.

I don't really like to talk about myself because I feel that no one is interested to hear what I have to say anyway.

I procrastinate way too much.

Anomalia February 16th, 2016

Yays!

heartI am good at creating a safe space for people to open up and be vulnerable and as a result, many people trust me when they need someone to trust

heart I am a good problem solver and especially good at figuring out plan E after Plans A, B, C, and D have failed

heart I am very dedicated to the things that I am passionate about, which allows me to have a great impact on them

Nays!

broken heartI make too many decisions based on what others will think, rather than on what I really want

broken heart I have a strong fear of failing or disappointing others that sometimes gets in my way from really trying to do something great

broken heart I set unrealistically high expectations for myself and then beat myself up over not being able to meet them
