How has chess influenced your personality?

Sfrums

I feel it has made me better at making decisions, but also a bit more introverted over the years. I posted a blog about it here: http://personalityfun.com/personality-and-chess/.

What about you guys?

Made me more irritable, withdrawn, anti-social.  My life has definitely gone downhill since I took up chess, objectively speaking.  Both employmentwise and socially.

Time spent at chess is objectively "non productive" that takes away time for self improvement or work. 

Time spent at chess is no better than if watching tv, doing drugs, or just sleeping more.

doing drugs? oh
