Know Yourself

“Know Yourself” was a famous Greek aphorism adopted by Dr. Pankey. He taught us that we must be realistic about ourselves if we want to be truly successful.

So what are your strengths? What are your weaknesses? What are the blind spots for which you need to compensate? And do you have emotional triggers which can release a set of behaviors capable of burning your best intentions to the ground?

“Knowing yourself” is step one. Only after you achieve confidence in your abilities through greater self-awareness ( high self-regard not simply high self-esteem) will you begin to develop a greater capacity to wisely utilize your unique personal resources and create your preferred future.
