  • It's impossible to be accurately self-critical.
    • Your ego will defend anything that feels dangerous.
    • You need criticism from outside.
    • That you are forced to hear, either because
      • 1) you trust the source has your best interest in mind, or
      • 2) it's inescapable and impossible to ignore
        • e.g. feedback from someone who outranks you, who says it in front of others.
