What is something you dislike about yourself?
Wow. So, this question comes from writing prompts, which comes via Petra who decided to use it for blogging inspiration, and I volunteered to do it with her. And that’s the first question/prompt. Wow.
Well, that would be my lack of self-control. I was stunned a few weeks ago to finally see that I am a binger. I binge eat, drink, read, game, sleep (ok, used to binge sleep, and would love to still be able to), shop, watch movies/shows, whatever, as long as it is in some way unhealthy personally, spiritually, financially, or relationally.
My acknowledgement of my lack of self-control goes back to my 2-months ago blog post where I asked what I am going to sacrifice. Well, heck. I’ve never denied myself anything, ever. Ever. Ok, I take that back. I did a 24 hour fast completely once. A couple of weeks ago I fasted 8 meals over 4 days.
Yep, no self-control. I do not like that about myself.
Self control? I just go with the flow. LOL
Yeah, that’s what I’ve done for years. :sigh:
Hmmm. Well, I wish I had a thicker skin. Sometimes I do, but other times I can be overly sensitive. So yeah, I hear you about the menopause stuff. LOL. It gets better though. Hang in there!
Well, there is a flip side to having a thicker skin, and that is the tendency to not be as sensitive to how something might be perceived by someone with a thinner skin. The think-skinned tend to unintentionally hurt feelings because of the lack of sensitivity. Hence, I have to watch my mouth. LOL
I would feel much better about the whole menopause thing if my monthly visits would stop. 😉
I sometimes spend money I don’t have for some quick satisfaction that is gone by the time I get home. I hate that.
That’s under my umbrella of no self-control. In fact, I was just sitting here thinking that I would probably be a lot more productive with a margarita. Which I wouldn’t really… 😉
