   What qualities would you like to bring through your personality into the world?
   
   Expanding on this, what are the qualities you would manifest from your essence or potential, into your personality where they meet the world?
   
   For example, one could allow themselves to be more trusting which would counter feelings of anxiety or more confident which would dissolve insecurities, or more playful and less stiff, or more creative and pioneering as a writer.
   
   But of course, please answer in the way you relate to it.

   An ideal of myself would be something along these lines:
   
   A man who accepts and loves himself and all others despite their behaviour; who endeavours to bring happiness and knowledge of how one can live a happy life to both himself and to all others whom he meets or interacts with: a spiritual teacher who exemplifies what he teaches and has fun and enjoyment, and brings fun and enjoyment whilst doing it - this is my idea.

   I would love for people to be more compassionate towards their fellow man. Instead of just turning a blind eye to a hungry child or a down and out homeless person. Actually try and help. If all would do this, this country would be such a better place to live. Many are not living, they are only surviving. I want to help them to "Live."

      There is so much to this. When people like you express such feelings, it already does something as it connects with others who feel the same and we start uniting on those common values.

   I would push for rational discussions and compromise in an effort to actually solve problems rather than blame others.  As a community - from townships, to countries, to the entire world, we need to work collectively on the problems that affect all of us.  We are divided by superstitions, wars, egos etc. and in many areas education and knowledge are demonized as "elitist" etc.  We need to come to a place where we rely on our intellect and our empathy together so that humanity will thrive, rather than cause its own extinction.  I think I would bring rational thought and compromise to the world table.

      Well, it is a start to voice such viewpoints. We all have our unique perspectives, gifts and life experiences to bring to the table. And so long as each of us can expand our world views by listening openly to the voices of others, there is a choice.

   I would suppress my anger and manifest my kind nature. I have a tendency to allow irritation, aggravation and downright anger to affect the people I love most. I am missing someone now because I was being intolerant and impatient.
   
   Being kind would just be so much easier than allowing traffic or a line in Walmart to affect everyone I love and who loves me. To be a good guy who is slow to anger could only be good for someone in everything they do. Understanding, kindness and compassion can take a person places that anger prevents them from reaching.
   
   I’d be a great guy and an even tempered soul.
