Always focus on the bad things about ourselves instead of focusing on our good bits?

I think its sometimes good to check your faults, that way you can sort them out. its not good to focus on them always, only sometimes!!
the three things i like about myself are:
I don't take things to heart.
I really care about others.
i am a good Mum.

Because of the "grass is always greener" syndrome. We want the things we don't have, period. We think "if only" will make our lives better.
3 things I like about myself... people find I am easy to talk to, humorous and I was blessed with an above average looking face/great smile. My body, in years gone by, was better than some, not as good as others, but on the whole, I was always satisfied. Dwelling on my short-comings (although I am very aware of them) is/was a waste of time for me.

focusing on bad traits versus good traits about your personality is a trait in and of itself. there are 5 main personality traits. Openness, Conscientiousness, Extroversion, Agreeableness, and Neurotic ism. if you are neurotic then you tend to worry and focus more on the bad than the good. Some people however have a completely opposite reaction when they think they are better than everyone else.

I think everyone knows they have good parts (just check out your other answers!) but we don't want to seem big-headed so we focus on our bad bits.
Kinda like when people dumb themselves down.

because we want the good things to stand out, we tend to notice the bad things because obviously thet are not good. i like my eyes nose and lips. but i absolutely HATE my eyebrows! oh and i am a very thoughtful person and can give out excelent advice and love to care for others. :P ;)

I can make people laugh, I have a reasonably good figure, and I like to think I'm pretty intelligent.
Ooh that's cheered me up actually :-)
