10 honest words
Options
We did this activity in a class the other day, I thought it would be interesting to do it on here. It's fun to see what traits come up really often, and people can surprise you.
Name 10 traits that describe you. Try to have an equal number of "positive" and "negative" traits.
Sometimes it can be hard do decide if a trait is positive or negative. It will be interesting to see if opinions differ on certain traits
Here's mine to get you started
Positive- clever, level headed, tolerant, determined, curious
Negative- cynical, pragmatic, manipulative, obsessive, sarcastic
I don't really see cynicism or pragmatism as negative, that ended up being decided in class.

I did a similar exercise with my therapist this week, except she wanted me to list all positive. I sat there for the longest time not knowing what to say. 20 minutes later I had six positives (with a little prompting from her)....
Positives about me:
I'm resilient
I'm creative
I have a good work ethic
I'm loyal
I'm feisty
Negatives about me:
I am quick to anger
I have very low self esteem
I get annoyed easily
I cuss like a truck driver stuck on a sailor ship
