Below is a
list of positive qualities and characteristics and their antonyms
or opposites.
- Read the
list and decide where you see yourself - does your character
fit totally into the left-hand column or do you have a combination
of both?
- Which side
lists the qualities most like you?
- Is there
room for improvement with some of the qualities you see yourself as
having?
- Read it
with curiosity and an open-minded approach.
- Do not be
hard on yourself, instead, be honest.
There are
many more words that could be included; this is just a simple
exercise in personal observation.
If you
believe there could be some improvement,
contact us and together we will
build the list you desire.
