There are many degrees of "impulsiveness". It may be a clinical problem for you, especially if it negatively affects your daily life. Do you buy outrageous items a lot? Do you make life-changing decisions on a whim? If you are putting yourself into debt, if you can't hold a job, etc, you may be clinically impulsive.
