Yesterday I got back the feedback from a 360 evaluation on me that was sent out to people from all areas of my life. Both the good and bad feedback was amazingly consistent, and I’ve been processing it all since then. It’s great knowing that I’m consistent enough in my behavior that all these different types of people, from all areas of my life, all pretty much saw me the same way. While the good was amazing to read, the bad really stood out to me. I actually was not surprised by any of it though, and it is all stuff I have already been working on in myself. I didn’t take it badly at all. I also believe that a great way of disarming the power of your imperfections and insecurities is by owning them — openly acknowledging them. That being said, what better way for me to do that than post about them on Facebook and my blog.

Yes.

So — here we go: The four things that were consistently mentioned in regards to my pitfalls, distractions, and weaknesses were: women, being too sensitive, being too much of a perfectionist, and being too worried about money. All of these things are true, and I realize that. But, ironically, all of these traits contribute to all the positive feedback that was said about me. They make me who I am. It seems like the good in me isn’t possible without the bad in many ways. My biggest insecurity is money, and feeling like I sometimes don’t make enough to ever get married. I don’t mind being poor at times, but I don’t want to ask my potential wife and kids to be poor too. And no matter how great my work may look to you, or how much money you may think I might make doing it, I always want you to see me as a struggling artist, because at times, I am. Ladies, any of you that might have any interest in ever dating me – please know that I will never – ever – be a sugar daddy to you. I don’t care how good you might look, stay away from me if that’s what you’re after. That being said, I hope to one day find somebody that’s worth giving everything I can to emotionally, not monetarily. Now, I’m going to carry on with doing what I do in life. Have a good weekend, y’all.
