CRITICAL INTROSPECTION 

A wonderful and necessary tool for self-improvement that involves looking into the mirror and recognizing and accepting one's own faults and shortcomings so as to become more humble and less proud. Pride is a deadly sin, not a positive trait.

CRITICAL INTROSPECTION has made me understand what I need to improve about myself. As a result, others have become more tolerant of my presence.
