Fair enough.

My outlook is different only in that I view others' perceptions to be more relevant than my own in these types of things, as self-perception is almost never quite in line with what others see. One with great self-control would, in theory at least, give the perception to others of having said control.

No offense intended in the earlier post; just being candid is all.
