    ^I can be pretty skilled at that :grin:

    I'm very good at listening, and also offering advice. I've usually never been in the situation I'm offering advice on but I don't know, I'm just good at it.
    Also I'm good at keeping secrets. And I am a MASTER of bullshit. You should read some of my essays.

    Honesty. It doesn't always benefit me though.

    Making people laugh at my ironic humor. It doesn't seem to work as well online. I'd also say being empathetic, fiercely loyal to my friends, and put a lot of thought into everything(this can also backfire like someone else said). I enjoy researching a new topic and learning new anecdotal things. I have very interesting dreams.

    Persistence. If there's something I really want to achieve or do or see, I'm just doing everything in my power to get there, and while I'm working my way to that thing, I always say to myself along the way, that hard work always gives a good result.
    There's no chickening out or "I don't feel like it". I said you're doing it you piece of crap, PERIOD

    Also, I can be really understanding when there's an actual person behind the mask.

    I try to be kind, accepting and nonjudgmental towards everyone.

    I can be very determined and hard-working.

    I like to learn and read a lot.

    Most of my friends usually commend me for my taste in music so there's that.

    I can be a pretty good listener and a good team player. During high school and college, I always get the work done no matter what which pretty much affected my health but I get more stressful when things aren't working so I always get things done.

    Most people tel me their secrets me and I'm good at keeping it usually because I forget 80% of the time but hey that's better than gossiping about it.

    My determination is probably my greatest strength. Once I set out to achieve something, I don't stop until I've achieved it. No matter how hard it is.

    My ability to stay fair and even-tempered. It's up to me to be the mediator when my friends are arguing or mad.

    my nonjudgmental nature and inability to be shocked

    that works very well in crisis therapy

    Knowing how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop.

    :lol:

    Seriously, it would probably be my middle-of-the-road attitude when it comes to issues. I'm, like some others have mentioned themselves being, a mediator. I've also been said I'm very good at getting people to open up.

    I also have a ridiculous amount of will power. Sometimes, I test myself. For example, I'm a smoker. I enjoy smoking cigarettes. Sometimes, I'll walk around with a cigarette in my mouth, so I know it's there and available, and go through the entire day not smoking it. I do this to see if I can, if need be, rely on myself. Of course, I should probably quit, but I can at least force myself not to smoke. One thing at a time though.

    Ambition, my persistent pursuit for personal growth, empathy. Unfortunately I lack perseverance, which is a quality I admire in others.

    Most consider it a weekends but I consider it a strength: my kindness
