On Monday (17-Oct-11), I discovered the Big Five Personality test. What it showed me is that I am in the bottom percentile for "agreeableness". Suddenly, everything became clear - after all these years! I am never going to be popular on forums, despite the fact that I often prepare my posts with great care - so I'll stop frequenting those - they're for people with strong herding instincts - not for the likes of me.
It also made me realise that nobody whom I don't pay very well (which I cannot afford) will ever be able to help me but myself - so I have started daily self-improvement sessions for myself. As improvement comes, I anticipate being able to reduce the frequency of them. Already I believe I've got a handle on getting myself to go to bed earlier - so far, this completely unexpected revelation (I found the personality test on an aggregation blog - and VERY nearly didn't do it!) has done nothing but good for me!!!
