Self-Reflection List

I am a bit scattered, so I want to list what I do well and what I need to improve. To stay positive, I’ll write down ten strengths and five areas for improvement.

Strengths

1. I have a big heart.
2. I am very honest and transparent.
3. I am a good friend.
4. I am a good dog owner.
5. I am a hard worker.
6. I can be funny.
7. I am working on strengthening my faith.
8. I genuinely want other people to succeed.
9. I value growth.
10. I am empathetic.

Things I need to work on:

1. I am a bit all-or-nothing when it comes to life.
2. I can be very negative, especially towards myself.
3. I lack the capacity or desire to set healthy boundaries.
4. I can fall into victim mode quite easily.
5. Falling into “the pit” is really quite easy for me to do, and probably a habit of some sort.

Maybe, just maybe, everything that I have been going through wasn’t meant to harm me. Maybe it was meant to strengthen me. I’ve never met anyone who wants to grow as much as I do, yet finds the suffering to do so surprising.
