One thing that always baffles me is how people can accept themselves for who they are. Like I'm constantly annoyed at myself and find hard to not put myself down because I know my own flaws and insecurities that make me into a not so good person. And of course correcting those flaws are easier said than done. It also seems like some flaws run so deep into your personality that you can't change it, after all it could be in our genes for all we know..
How do you guys deal with yourselves?

First of all I'd like to say that this thread is SUPER DEEP. I've been trying to make some sort of reply for so long already.
I don't really know how I deal with myself? If I find something I think needs improvement in my personality I might consult with others first. Often times the toughest critics are ourselves! (cheeesyy xD)
Sorry I dunnoe what to say =( What do you mean by personality flaws? Can you give an example? Like being shy/distant/close-minded? Huh xD?

haha i forgot all bout this thread.. yea this topic has always baffled me..
consulting other ppl is tough! no one is truly honest about that becuz even if you promise that you won't be offended, they still may be extremely hurtful by what they choose to say.. saying it like it is, doesn;t seem to work.. maybe i'm just saying that becuz i don't take criticism very well.. i get defensive and take it personally.. and that itself is another flaw.. even so criticism is necessary i guess.. we cant solve a problem without knowing its there
yea those can be personality flaws.. like one of mine is that i interrupt ppl constantly and it just makes conversation really awkward after a while.. i'm also too trusting :/ sucks to get taken advantage of
i guess we have to strive to perfect ourselves but when i think about it, we'd be striving forever.. its not like we can ever be perfect.. so where is that point where we can be happy with ourselves and think "hey i rock, i am a good person and there's nothing wrong with me" not on just one occasion but always.. i feel like i'd be lying to myself
and the thot of spending years just to modify one personality trait (assuming that you can in the first place) is not very motivating either
then again personality is not concrete and constantly changing and evolving based on your experiences and closest friends.. can we really mold some a fragile, unstable form to our liking?
