In self examination, sometimes you need to be a tough critic. This concept raises bar of standards and ensures that it doesn’t naturally slide downward due to self-neglect.

Constantly moving forward should only proceed once examination and accountability has been achieved. It is definitely nothing less than horrible advice to forget about everything when people say this. It is basically saying turn other cheek to reality and step away by moving forward.

Although, there are many scenarios in life, like a breakup in a relationship, where sometimes moving forward sooner than later is indicated; however, these still need assistance of introspection.

In event your ego is simply too important because everything you do or touch usually turns to gold and silver anyway, then it’s time to check that at door.

By not checking your ego or narcissism, your simply becoming like that of a plant that never grows. You are always fed with water and sunlight but, due to your lack of introspection, you stay static amongst many others becoming taller and stronger around you.

Committing to yourself to daily self examination will undoubtedly improve your moral character, but more importantly, help in your overall self progression. Resolve to become and stay permanently committed.

This mindset should be on automatic pilot all time. However, many people think their logic is fine when they pass another car when climbing a hill. Their thinking is it shouldn’t matter because it’s a new V6. This is skewed thinking because logically you should, under any circumstances, never attempt this maneuver. However, putting too much hope and faith into something and thinking that everything will be just fine is always asking for trouble.

When thinking under a more controlled mindset, logic will prevail and instead of always wearing rosy glasses hoping everything will turn out fine, you will have assurance knowing certain variables need to add up before a decision is made.

If this mindset is not taken seriously, problems, trouble, and dysfunction in relationships and employment will more than likely always follow.

Taking extra time to pause and let brain logically process any given scenario without obscuring its reality, can only benefit any perspective person. Life will consistently throw curve balls at you, but using consequential logic when critical thinking or not, makes for a better life.
