Knowing yourself

roopadadia · Jan 19, 2008

Dear ILs,

We have always been talking about people around us. How many times have we said let me know myself or how much do we know ourselves.

Can we judge ourselves right or do we under / over estimate ourselves.

Let us start with a small honest exercise. List down 3 of your strength & weakness.

If you can do it at the spur of the moment as soon as you read this then great...otherwise start thinking.

All those who visit this thread are requested to please do this exercise if not here then at your own desk...but please do.

To start with here i go:

3 Strengths

Easy to get along
Helping
Compassionate

3 Weakness

Finicky at home
ignore my health
a little short tempered

All the Best

Warm regards
Roopa.

Hey Ladies, now this seems a sensible one. This will make a lot of us sit and think before we point out a finger at others.

Here goes mine

Strengths
1) Amicable
2) Quick Learner
3) Helpful and cheerful

Weakness
1) Short tempered
2) Pessimistic
3) Stubborn

Hmm..had to gather myself to write this down and be HONEST to myself.

Great going friends....this is just the begining.

Many a times we realise our strengths and weakness when we read of thers and it sets our minds thinking are we there or not.

So to help better your self or i would say to improve your personality jot down more strengths and weakness and work towards it.

You will find a new you.

Warm regards
Roopa.

PS: i was expecting more responses...maybe they'll come in due course.
