Self awareness is very challenging, you will always have blind spots.

    Yes, and… it’s a skill that needs to be practiced. We don’t call it out as a skill, we don’t recognize it as a skill, and we don’t tell others that they need to practice it. So we get stupid shit like people saying they don’t do social media, on social media.

    The world would be a much better place if we prioritized self-awareness as a universal skill.
