  1. It’s hard to talk about yourself positively without sounding to conceited and in turn, talking badly without seeming desperate for compliments. But, I can firmly say that one of my redeeming qualities is my productivity. I am the type of person who will not leave homework (a blog for example) to the last minute. I try to get things done as soon as possible, but all the while, making sure my work is clean and complete. I think that this is a good quality because I never find myself procrastinating or in a major hurry to get something done. Making sure this get done well before the due date help me breath easier and keep me less stressed. Besides I’m the type of person who hates knowing something is incomplete and unfinished.

  2. Talking about your redeeming qualities is tricky to do without it coming across as bragging, but I have a certain aspect of my personality that I would not want to live without. In general, I am very focused and am not an easily distracted person, which helps in all aspects of my life. Whether it’s doing my homework, at skating practice or even emptying my mind while I do yoga, I can focus on the task at hand and get the job done. This really helps me to perform well under pressure and achieve what I set my mind to, which is why I truly appreciate having this redeeming quality.

  3. It's fun to brag about yourself because it makes you feel kind of bad but a part of you feels good. I think my redeeming quality is that I am very forgiving, I may get mad at people a lot but I never hold to big of a grudge. I don't really get affected by things other people say. I never let anything people say affect me, I don't really care what other people think of me. My family always care about me and so do my friends. Another one of my redeeming qualities is that I love to make people laugh. I feel like I'm pretty good at making other people laugh and it makes me feel good too. I love making people laugh and just being able to laugh with my friends and family it makes me feel so happy and just able to enjoy life. I do believe that everyone has redeeming qualities even though some people are bad everyone must have something good about them.

    1. I agree that those are your redeeming qualities and they really make up for your some of your terrible qualities. Just kidding. I love it when you make me laugh when I'm sad or forgive me every time I have said or done something mean!

  4. Telling people about your redeeming qualities is hard without sounding cocky. One redeeming quality that I have is that I am determined. When I really want something I find a way to get it. I dont beg my parents for something, I find another way to get that something such as working and saving up. I think that this quality is imortant because when you leave you r parents house and go live on your own, you will need to be independant and come up with your own ways to get things, not rely on your parents.

  5. My redeeming quality is that I am compassionate. I feel sympathetic and understanding toward everyone. I feel bad for people and animals and anyone that's not happy. Like if somebody says something bad about someone else or if I see someone is not happy, I always feel really bad for them and I try to help them out. Also every time I say or do something mean I regret it right away and imagine how I would have felt if someone said or did that to me. Whenever there is someone who did something not good and everyone is hating on them, I still feel bad because I think about how I would feel if I was in their shoes. Also if I see someone being cruel to an animal I want to just run over there at take it away. I also like helping people and making sure that if I see someone having a hard time I can be there for them.

    1. Compassion is a great quality to have. I feel like the more compassion you have the better the person you are.

    2. That is so true you always feel bad for everyone even if you didn't do something. It's nice to hear you regret mean stuff you say, it makes me feel good because now I know if you say something mean to me you regret it and so do I....<3

  6. Like almost every one else, I don't like talking about myself too much, I feel like it makes me a bad person for bragging, but for this blog I will a little bit. I would have to say that my redeeming quality is my ability to make people laugh (when I use it). If ever I am talking to someone or just about anyone, I feel that it is important to make them laugh. I love making people laugh even if it's because I did something stupid, as long as I see the slightest smile, it makes me feel good. Having someone to make you laugh or smile is a great quality and I like to think that I have it, and it doesn't only make the person I'm talking to happy, but it makes me happy too.

  7. A redeeming quality that I believe I have is my work ethic. Whether it is pertaining to sports, schoolwork or relationships I believe you will be rewarded for trying your best. When I tryout for hockey teams, or participate in different athletic activities, I make sure to push myself to the limit. When I am writing an essay or completing assignments, I make sure to read over them over and over before handing them in, because I want to make sure they are the best they can be. Also, when it comes to helping out one of my friends or fixing a family problem, I won't stop until it is solved.

  8. A redeeming quality I admire having, (without sounding cocky) is I know how to make someone smile. I can observe someones personality very quickly and sort of get the gist of who they are as a person and I can recognize their sense of humor. Making someone laugh has always made me really happy because I know that maybe that made their day or maybe it made us closer friends. In any situation I feel I benefit from it because not only do I make people smile but I, myself smile too. I think it's a great quality to have and smiling is the prettiest thing someone can wear and I'm glad thats what I can offer.

  9. I'm not a big fan of this topic because I don't like bragging about myself because I feel awkward. But if I had to pick something I would say that I always try to stay positive. Whether it's me getting a bad grade, or one of my friends is upset, I'll always try to think positively and make the best of the situation. I think this is very important because if you're always down and upset about everything you won't be as happy and you won't have as much fun! So that's why I always try to stay happy:)

  10. I find that the redeeming quality that I have is that I am courageously honest. For example if there is a situation where someone is doing something other people and I don't like, I will definitely be the first one to say what they are doing wrong or what is a matter with them, which is not always a good thing but I like it. You might be thinking well when ever is that a good thing? Well You know those moments when lets say a friend has something stuck in there teeth and no one wants to tell them because it's weird, i'm always there to tell them straight up because I would want someone to tell me if I were them. This quality can easily get you into big trouble or have great rewards, like when i was in math class and the teacher wasn't teaching properly and i know i'm not a teacher but what he was doing was just wrong, and I told him how unfair he was and that i didn't understand why he was doing that and he kept trying to change the subject. Every person in that room knew by my facial expression that that wasn't going to fly so I gave him a piece of my mind and now he's changed because of it, this was and example of big rewards because I knew that everyone else was on my side as well.

  11. I would like to say that I am honest. Pretty much all of the time I am completely honest, to the point where people get annoyed at me. I think that it is a pretty good quality to have most of the time and I am happy that I possess it. I think that this is also an important quality because lying to people will only ever cause trouble. If your really unlucky, one lie leads to another until your at the point where your truly screwed.

  12. I think it's hard to talk about qualities within me because I don't want to sound cocky or stuck up but I guess my redeeming quality is my capability of making someone laugh. At first I thought honesty was my redeeming quality but I realised that I am brutally honest which isn't always good. Anyways, I can always make someone laugh or at least put smile on there face because I am pretty sassy when I want to be. Having this quality can help others and myself when going through a rough patch. I think being sassy can also make people what to be around me (if it is positive). I am glad to be this way because otherwise I wouldn't be very fun to be with.

  13. I think that a redeeming quality I have is my sense of humor. I always seem to find a way to make people laugh even if I am not doing it on purpose. Honestly, I do not even know how I am funny because I rarely make jokes and when I do, they are terrible. I guess I am funny when I do not try to be because I am slightly crazy. I do not care about how insane I act around people and I suppose that can make them laugh and lead them to think that I have a good sense of humor. I really like that I possess this quality because I love to make people laugh and bring smiles to people’s faces.

  14. One quality that i guess i have is humor. I never try to be funny because it usually back fires. But the things i say are usually very dumb that people think its funny and starts laughing. So i usually just go along with it and say I'm joking when i really wasn't. When i try to be funny, it sometimes back fires and its just not funny at all. But when I don't try to be funny, people seem to laugh. For example, we had this drug/alcohol talk in school and they were explaining something in the brain that I've already learned but never actually understood. So they explained it and I finally understood it so i tried to whisper to the person next to me "i finally understand it!" and next thing i know everyone around turns around and starts laughing.

  15. One redeeming quality I have is that is i am organized. I find this quality very helpful for many things such as keeping my school work organized. I usually remember to do my homework and value keeping my work organized. I occasionally forget to bring stuff to class but generally I remember. I always need my work to be organized in a folder and need to keep my papers clean and neat.

  16. I think my redeeming quality would have to be that I am usually a very positive person and I think that my positivity can rub off on other people too! I like to try to find the bests things in a bad situation and just have an overall happy and positive outlook of life! I think that I can make people smile and make them more positive too! I try to always stay positive because I think that there is no point in looking at something in a negative way. if a situation ends in a positive way than you wasted your time being negative. I would rather be positive and have the situation end negatively than waste my time being negative and find out that the situation ends positively! I think that my positive energy can rub off on people and put a smile on their face which makes me really happy!

  17. One redeeming quality that I have is being caring. I care a lot for people, especially my friends and family. I put others people feelings above mine. It’s a good quality because it proves that I’m a loyal friend and that I will always be there for you. Hopefully it will show people that I’m trustworthy and that I will always be there for them whenever they need me. Whenever a friend is dealing with something that they need advice on, they can always come to me because I’m there to listen and give the best advice I could give.

  18. My redeeming quality is that I have a good work ethic. I hear stories about people who always procrastinate about doing their homework and they end up doing it at 2 in the morning. That never happens to me. I am always able to stop myself from saying that I will do it later. Also, I am able to manage my time to finish something quickly using efficient methods. I almost always finish my homework in 1 hour maximum. Sometimes I even have to do half a project! But for some reason, I am able to give myself a time limit and I almost always finish it on schedule. I don't think I ever did not have enough time to finish a test or an assignment.
