I'm having difficulty answering this.
I know that there are things about my personality that others would think are flaws, but I do not see them as flaws. I know that in the end, my personality helps the people in my most immediate circle of relevant peers by elevating and motivating them. My personality keeps me sane, and affords me the ability to accomplish my dreams.
Perhaps I'm not flawless, which is a pretty good assumption to make, but I don't think any flaws I may have are very counterproductive or dangerous to my prosperity.

Are they dangerous to the ppl around you tho? If so, it does tell me what some of your personality traits could be.
-
I'd like to think that I elevate others. If they don't see what I think and do as elevating, then I'm not sure why they care about what I think or do.
-
What if its someone that cares about you? And you end up hurting them instead of elevating? Would you still be indifferent?

The ends justify the means. Constructive criticism is different than resistance. If someone isn't able to see my vision and isn't there to support or believe in me, I don't need them in my life. In order to succeed, you must disengage yourself from the negative people that often crowd people's life's. Their insincere "care" about you would be made all the more real if they actually cared about what you want to do in life.
-
What if your vision is bad? I'll give an example. You have access to drugs, selling them would bring you a fortune, securing a prosperous future. Your family/important other says no for obvious reasons. So, is their care for you bad or your intentions and feelings?

Then they should dutifully offer another solution. I've already said constructive criticism is different from resistance. Anyone who tries to break down what you believe is the truth without offering any alternatives, by which you can accomplish the goals you feel can be accomplished through your truth, is spending too much time worrying about other people and not enough time worrying about themselves. They are an insecure, negative person, who will eventually succumb to see any form of success as being striped from them, and thus, they are the quintessential example of someone you don't want near and dear to you.

Worrying about someone is being protective and sensitive. It shouldn't be something that brings you down. And yes, providing constructive criticism is one way to make someone turn around but there are other ways. You seem a bit self destructive, overly confident and apathetic. With no offense.

[quote]Worrying about someone is being protective and sensitive. It shouldn't be something that brings you down. [/quote] I never said it did, however, when you worry too much about other people, and not yourself, you tend to become encapsulated in jealousy because people will end up moving forward while you're sitting back and watching them do so. This, in turn, makes a person volatile for anyone who wishes to succeed. Self-preservation is more important than having pseudo-friends. [quote]And yes, providing constructive criticism is one way to make someone turn around but there are other ways. [/quote] No, there isn't. You cannot force change. A person must accept that there is a problem before they can fix the problem. Constructive criticism is the only way other people can do this for one another in a helpful manner. Anything other mechanism used to change people is inherently deceitful and cynical. [quote] You seem a bit self destructive, overly confident and apathetic. With no offense.[/quote] I wouldn't say self-destructive. Self-constructive is a better term. Also, "overly" is relative term.

You are my favorite person on this site.

You must be preparing for an interview.

Life is a constant interview for the most important job in the world. If you don't treat it as such, it won't be a surprise when you don't get hired.
