Do You Know Yourself?

One of your biggest competitive advantages is knowing yourself.  The more you are able to understand yourself, the better equipped you are to deal with issues and problems on a daily basis, especially those that take you out of your comfort zone.  Self-knowledge allows you to change any of your own inhibiting actions and unleash your creative abilities.

Personal growth can be difficult. it requires us to evaluate where we are and whether or not things are working in our lives.  If they aren't working, we need to change.  And, managing change can be stressful whether we instigated it or it has been created by an external force.  Being cognizant of this and strategically planning the change for personal growth are both critical factors to a successful outcome.

Most human beings are uncomfortable with uncertainty.  They resist change.  They insist on doing things the old way.  When this happens, it can produce stagnation and limit growth. People often resist anything that requires effort.  Given the choice of doing something that requires little effort or doing something that is difficult, most people opt for the easy.

What about you?  Do you make the practice of self-evaluation a habit?  It's surprising that only a small percentage of people actually self-evaluate.  You can greatly improve your effectiveness when you know yourself. Have you changed?  Are you trying to be the way you've always been?  Or, are you looking for new and different ways to do things.
