26 - Have Insight in Sight

Today’s topic is all about self-awareness as discussed in the book Insight by Tasha Eurich. It’s important to understand what’s going on inside of you, as well as how others perceive you. Look out for those “alarm clock moments” - whether it’s a new role, new rules, or just everyday insights - and really listen to what they’re telling you. And don’t just focus on yourself - getting feedback from others can be just as valuable. Make sure you choose the right people to give you feedback, ask specific questions, and focus on one or two things at a time. It’s all about gaining a better understanding of yourself and the world around you.
