What would you change to make yourself a more suitable fictional character?

I was idly contemplating writing a performance piece for me and someone else. I thought I would replicate our actual relationship, except make it more… well… better.

I asked myself why I would need a change from what’s really there. The obvious answer was, “more conflict needed!”

So what, I pondered, would make this plausible. I concluded that I would write myself as someone who was much more certain about things-that-really-matter.

Anyway, it got me to wondering how other people view themselves, and what changes they feel they’d need to make in order to become pulp celebrities.
