What is one thing you wish you had more of?

Hello readers! Today’s post, as you can see from the title is, “What is one thing you wish you had more of?”. That’s right, we aren’t talking about materialistic things here, although if some – thing – came to mind, it could be of use for this exercise. For example, if your immediate response was, “time”; perhaps your – thing – is actually freedom. Another example is money: if money came to mind, perhaps your – thing – is financial security.

If you haven’t already you can start off this post by going to the difficult person test. This could inspire some thoughts on where you’d like to improve.

Self Reflection

Instead, what this question dares to ask is more so in terms of character traits. As are most of the posts on my blog, we want to go inward and do some self-reflection. That being said, take a few minutes to truly think, what character trait would do you wish you had more of?

Perhaps courage, or strength come to mind. Maybe tenacity or resilience? Empathy or compassion? How about adventurous or curiosity. Or maybe you are working on calming your anger and you’d like more patience or perspective?

Challenge

As you go about your day today, or tomorrow if you are reading this late. Deliberately put the character trait you wish you had more of in the forefront of your mind. Act on it today and see how it feels. Think of it like a new accessory and use it as part of your outfit today.

At the end of the day reflect on how it felt to ‘become’ more of that character trait. Let us know in the comments below how it felt!
