Day 9/ 31 - What are your worst habits




These habits may be bad ones but can also be deemed good too I think. Well, that is how I see it ; )

I have very high expectations of myself.  I constantly stop, take stock of my life and look at what I need to change.  I am not always successful but I am very aware of what my personal weaknesses are which is not always a good thing as I am never truly happy with myself.  I always think I can improve and be a better person in my eyes.

Impatient. I hate waiting for things to happen and invariably end up doing them myself as the longer I have to wait the more agitated I become and eventually this simmers right up to being outright angry.  Home deliveries are the worst - to give me a time slot then arrive five minutes before the end - meh.

I tend to over think, stress and worry about the small things in life.  The big things I like to think I take in my stride as my brain switches to logic and calm mode.  Weird I know.

I am a tad OCD when it comes to things being in their place.  I may live in organised chaos but I know where everything is.  When people leave things out of place I always move it back quickly, sometimes before they've finished it!

I have never been one to burden others with my problems.  Everyone has their own worries and I do not like adding to them with mine which will, in time, pass.  This obviously proves problematic when I do need to talk things through although I am very lucky in that I am able to offload to my sister without fear of repurcussion or judgement.  She listens and most times that is all I need.

I switch between productive and cannot be bothered mode constantly.  I have bursts of energy and motivation to get things done and then sometimes spend far too long procrastinating which does not sit well with my other bad habit of being impatient.

I am high maintenance in the being kept entertained department.  I get bored with things very quickly if something is not grabbing my attention fully.  There is a limited amount of time I can sit and do nothing before I start getting annoyed. 

I think those are my worst habits.  I possess many quirks I'm sure, but these are the main ones that spring to the fore right now.

  4. Ugh! I over think everything too! I find myself over thinking it so much that if I would have just already done it, I would be finished and probably happy. You know what I mean?
