Key Takeaways:  

• It’s important to ask ourselves questions that test our assumptions, bias or information. We may find that we don’t have the whole picture. We may even learn something new! 

• Try journaling or self-reflecting from a 3^rd person view. By creating ‘self-distance,’ one may be able to gain a new perspective on one’s life, beliefs and challenges. 

• Practice admitting when you’ve made a mistake. Research suggests that admitting mistakes can often be seen as a strength as opposed to a weakness!
