TEN SIGNS THAT YOU TAKE YOURSELF TOO SERIOUSLY

1. Your favorite item is taken off the menu at a restaurant you frequent. You spend the entire meal complaining about it and decide you'll never come back.

2. Someone in your circle makes a mistake. You take this as a personal affront and spend 20 minutes berating them. During the span of time that you were raving, they could have corrected the simple, inadvertent error 9 times.

3. You update everyone you know about all of your ailments and problems in great detail, and often.

4. You assume your way of thinking is the only one out there and you get offended if people think differently than you.

5. You KNOW you're right.

6. Your conversation is peppered with phrases like, "That's nothing", "Am I right? ", "You should", "The right way to do it is", "that's stupid!" and "Why would you do that?"

7. You get upset when people don't know what you need, want, think and feel, even though you haven't told them.

8. You think "active listening" is when you let someone finish their sentence before moving on to your point.

9. You judge people frequently and voice that judgement to anyone who cares to listen.

10. You're offended at this list and assume I wrote it about you.
