I am a pleaser. I am constantly looking for ways to make myself and others happy.I clean up my spaces. I clean the dishes after a meal, keep the common spaces fairly neat, and make sure my stuff is mostly clean and organized. I am easy-going. I try to go with the flow. If my plans don’t work out perfectly, I adapt them a little bit. If I have to wait around for something, I try and find a way to amuse myself. If someone else has a different idea than me, I’m willing to listen and work out a compromise. I give to others. I spend time with the people who are important to me. I’m willing to give up some of my time to do something for someone else. I try to consider the opinions and needs of others. If someone is feeling down I do my best to help them or make them feel better.I do this to have less stress in my life. If I spend a few minutes tidying up here and there I know that later I’ll have a nice place to spend my time. Whether it’s my mess or not, if I help out now, it won’t build up and create a huge mess later. I do this so I am not angry all the time. If something doesn’t work out exactly how I want and I just get mad, then nothing positive will come out of it. If instead I make alternate plans, find a new book to read while I’m waiting, or come up with a new idea, then the negative improves. I do this to make myself and those around me happy. If I can improve someone else’s day it makes me feel better too. A little of my time or energy used to help someone who needs it is worth it to me.I do all of this in the hopes that I don’t become the people I grew up with. I want to surround myself and the people I love with a positive attitude and atmosphere.
