Do you envy people who have traits you wished you had?

I wish I could be like people who live in the moment. I'm always worrying about things that might happen in the future. I wish I could just take life day by day

No, not really. I would just work toward it myself.

@IAmJess When you're a worrier like me, it's very difficult to stop worrying. It's embedded in me
@chuck7882 One step at a time. What trait do you wish you had?
chuck7882 · 61-69, M
@IAmJess confidence
@chuck7882 Okay, so what things have you done at work that have worked out well for you or the school?
chuck7882 · 61-69, M
@IAmJess keeping good records, filing reports, I guess I do my job well but when I make mistakes I really beat myself up mentally
@chuck7882 I suspect you do your job well more often than you make mistakes, right?
chuck7882 · 61-69, M
Yes but I dwell on the mistakes
@chuck7882 Okay. So every time you find yourself reminding yourself of a mistake, make a point to also remind yourself of something you did well. Over time, if you keep doing this, it will change your thinking.
