This week's challenge comes from my friend Traci...
I've come to realize that I spend too much time being my own critic. I can easily pick out my own flaws. I don't think I'm alone in this habit, I believe that we all have this same tendency.
My challenge to you is this: Tell me what your own favorite character trait/ability is. Tell me all about it and how you affect others through it. If you honestly can't pick out your own strengths then I'll give you an easy way out. Just ask the 3 people closest to you to pick one for you. Then blog about those. I'll even give you permission to quote them. I'm sure that you'll find out that you can love what they love about you...
Ok, I had to think about this one, but I found my answer. My favorite character trait/ability of mine is... the fact that I'm dependable. I follow through on whatever it is I'm asked/expected to do & I give my 100%.
I think I've always taken advantage of that, just assuming everyone followed through, the older I get, the more I realize that is NOT the case. I've noticed it happen quite a bit. *I* don't understand it. I take after my mom I guess, it's something I take seriously. If I am asked to do something, I make sure it's done & follow it through to the end.
I could go into lots of examples of people not following through, & then about how I, or someone else had to "pick up the slack", but I'm not going to. I'm just going to leave it at knowing that *I* am glad it's something that I can & do do. It's something I'm not taking for granted anymore, its something I won't, or don't "gloat" about, but I am proud to know that others can depend on me.
So, there you have it, my own, personal favorite character trait of myself.
So, what about you? What is yours?
