SELF EXAMINE

Self examination is something not a lot of people think about. Not physically, but personality wise. It is human nature to evaluate other personalities but not our own.  The reason for this, is that it is easier to see a defect or a flaw in someone else rather than  oneself…

     Have you ever been around someone you thought was completely annoying? I think I know the answer to that. Do you think they know this about themselves? The answer is no.  Who wants to be a jerk or an a**hole (annoying) ? Have you noticed that when we point it out to that person, all they do is get offended and upset. This eventually turning them against you. I believe this being the result of a lack of willingness to self examine, and to become their own personality critic. How can we say this to people? I guess we really can’t. A famous phrase comes to mind, "monkey see, monkey do”.

     If we start by being our own personal critic, what can anybody say? They can just ask, right? Why are you such a great person? Self-examination! The rest wont be on you or me, but will lie directly under their own power to make the decision of joining the personal critic club. After all, we already know what annoying is, so why be part of the annoying club. This may come as news, but really, we already knew…
