Favourite quality about yourself

Hey everyone! I feel like it is hard for a lot of us to recognise our own strengths and positives especially without negativity. I thought I'd make this post so we can share at least ONE thing that we like about ourselves. Reply as often as you like to give a boost to your day 🌺. I'll kick it off!

Favourite: I like my work ethic because I am really responsible, considerate of others and I have a lot of attention to detail (that probably counts more than one).

I have already posted on this thread but I feel like thinking positively about ourselves is important to do on a daily basis! Smiley Very Happy

 

I really like that I am a very family-oriented person

I agree @missep, this can help daily by reminding ourselves just how great we are! Being family orientated sounds really special.

 

My favourite quality is that I always try to be fair, honest and to do the right thing. It isn't always easy and at times it can be hard to know what is 'right' but I consider it and work on it anyway and I like that!

I like that I'm a loyal person and dedicated to my studies! (Well, except maths :p)

I like that no matter what is happening in my life, my outlook remains the same. Sometimes, I am too optimistic for my own good. But at the same time, it is a great quality to have.

Wow, what a good idea!

 

I like how I can make anyone laugh, all my friends say I'm the funniest person they know and that I can always make them smile.

 

I feel better already : )

This is a brilliant thread idea!

 

My favourite quality about myself is probably my capacity for empathy. I think this serves me really well... I'm also quite level-headed, which aids me in not getting overly, unhealthily absorbed by other people's emotions.

I LOVE this thread! It reminds me of this old thread over on the Games section.

 

My favourite quality is how caring I am of others - young or old, human or animal. It means that I get a lot of happiness out of helping people which is always a good thing 🙂

I completely forgot about that old thread @lokifish, thanks so much for bringing it up again!

And also yes, @T4ils, lovely idea.

I had to sit and think on this for a while. And I've ended up coming up with something that I wouldn't have expected myself to say, because I don't think I've ever realised it before:

I am resilient. When things are tough and when there are things that I need to do, I do them. I handle it, I get through it, and right when things really need to be acted upon I'm able to do it calmly.
I would not be in this body, in this room, in this sort of situation if I hadn't been resilient.

What an awesome thread idea - I think that's completely true that we sometimes get bogged down in our own insecurities and only see the negatives about ourselves, it blinds us from seeing all the good qualities. 

 

My favourite quality about myself is that I'm completely non-judgemental, so it makes it easier for people to approach me and talk to me about things bothering them because they know I won't be quietly thinking badly of them.

I am so glad that a lot of people love this idea! Let's keep it going ☺️ I think sometimes we learn a new positive quality each day. Today I realised that I love how easygoing and chatty I am to customers, family and friends. It always makes my day being super friendly to everyone!

@T4ils Love the positivty of this thread! And I agree, it can definitely be hard for a lot of us to recognise our strengths and I think it's great that you've created an opportunity for us to do just that.

 

I would say that I like my politeness. I always try to treat others with courtesy and respect. Smiley Happy

@T4ils I love this because for many people it's actually really hard to think about what we like about ourselves as so often we focus on things we don't like and what we need to improve on!

 

I like that I am kind, honest and really genuine. It's interesting how our strengths can also be our weaknesses....Eg being really kind can make you a push over and being too honest can make you seem less interesting than someone who exaggerates all their stories - there's good and bad to every trait I guess and having a balance is always good Smiley Very Happy

You are so right about people not recognising the good things aboaut themselves and this is a great way to get people thinking.

 

You have really got me thinking and its difficult to pinpoint my favourite quality about myself. I'm really caught between my strange and warped sense of humour and my resilience when it comes to dealing with what life throws at me as I believe that without one I dont know if I would have the other.

 

Great topic Woman Wink

I second @safari93, this is an awesome idea for a thread @T4ils 🙂

My favourite quality about myself would have to be my randomness. No matter how weird I feel, I don't let it stop me. 🙂

I third everyone, cool idea for a thread @T4ils! My favourite quality about myself is how I'm gentle when I'm looking after young kids.

This is such a cool thread! Thank you for starting it. Smiley Very Happy

 

I think my favourite quality about myself is my resilience. I really have been through so much and every time I pick myself back up and access support and end up back on the straight and narrow 🙂

I like that I am considerate of other people and take responsibility for my actions (well, I try 🙂 )
