Check yourself!

In the spirit of the abundant resolutions that are soon to be so boldly professed and miserably fulfilled, I thought I would share something I am doing in my own life.

I have been a goal setter for many years now.  I evaluate and adjust those around this time each year.  There is something about writing a goal down that makes it real.  That’s not what I want to tell you about.

This year, I am asking a handful of people in my life to critique my personality – specifically the relational and intrapersonal characteristics of my personality.

One of the most difficult things to endure is personal criticism.  For the love of all things Holy, why would you ever want to invite that criticism?  Simple.  To grow and improve.

I regularly practice this in other areas of my life, but this is a first.  I am basically asking what is it about me that needs work?  I don’t know how this will go, but I may share some of the responses I get if it seems worthwhile.
