Flaws

Flaws
Given that there was a thread about values I think that a thread about flaws will be valuable too.
I think I have 2 big flaws that are very hard to control:
1. Over-thinking. I allways had this and sometimes I had problemes but since I started to gain interest in philosophy and psychology it has a very big take on my social me , I find it very hard to stop myself and I have became pretty anti-social in some situations but I don't really have people to talk about this kind of stuff.
2. I'm quick at drawing first hand conlusions about people and I'm allways proven wrong and I allways regret it.

Yeah, people in general just aren't into philosophy. Most people I discuss philosophy with are online forums such as this. Almost nobody IRL wants to do philosophy talk with me, just generic social talk.

I'd say I'm the opposite. I prejudge people, and I often (not always) end up being right in my assessment of them. But then again, I could simply be deluding myself into thinking so.

RE: Flaws
My flaws:

1.  Arrogance, whether or not I'm in the right.

2.  Tendency towards laziness.

3.  Consistently failing to kill people who, blatantly and flagrantly, enjoy anime.

Well I mean, I have a friend who over thinks about alot of issues but she copes with it by spending her time "overthinking" about things that dont really matter or affect her, and then she doesnt have to worry about over thinking about anything else.

Now, it's natural to draw first hand conclusions on people but you dont have to act on those conclusions. If someone seems stupid, act like they're of average intelligence, if someone seems weird, talk to them normally, etc. 
I have the same issue with drawing first hand conclusions.

Inverse Dunning–Kruger.

Being always much more right than one expects to be.

Although, I'm not sure that's right.
