When is the last time you evaluated yourself ? Some will say what u see is what u get. Others might have spent to much time evaluating and are withdrawn. Whatever place you fall it is a positive thing to take a look at yourself and if you do not like what u see make some changes.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Not everyday. But enough to feel like I'm relevant and true to myself.

good job
I do it daily. I set aside an hour each morning just to make sure I'm still as wonderful, intelligent, gorgeous, sexy, fun and utterly mesmerising as I was the day before and always find that I am in fact perfect in almost every way - my only fault is that I'm excessively modest.

good job and you are someone to me.
It is positive only if A) you are actually honest with yourself, and B) you are prepared to work on yourself if you uncover any flaws or character defects.

And what’s the measuring stick for evaluation? Cornerstone? Timeframe? Plane?

Thatis the nice thing you determine that yourself.
Well some aspects of our personalities can be changed, I suppose. Other parts are difficult, if not impossible, to change. And many of us may be at an age where we accept ourselves, warts and all. I guess it depends where you are in your life. I agree that if there is an aspect that is unhealthy or self-destructive, it would be a good thing to change THAT. Is that what you mean by evaluation? Not sure if that is what you mean by asking the question.

U got it.
evaluated what aspect of myself? a human being is a complex thing. i made a promise at age 15 to reevaluate all my beliefs periodically and i have kept my promise. i don't see the point, though, in doing a head-to-toe every, say, six months. i'm too old for that. i just work on what i need to work on.

That's positive
Every day, all the time, with an eye toward letting go of "self-ness" (i.e. identification with externals). Another excellent topic for "Dharma Café", where this kind of thing relates directly and centrally to our chosen theme(s).

I know you do it. Have a nice day.
It is difficult to do. Most of us see ourselves with rose colored glasses and when someone points out "faults" in our make up we get hurt and angry and look for excuses, however it is all very important that we do it from time to time.

Yes, constructive criticism is one thing...if you know somebody is trying to help. But for me, I find the people that give advice are usually extroverts who don't understand the benefits/qualities introverts have and consider some of our qualities somehow 'defective'.
you hit it someone else stated there is always someone pointing out my mistakes,
Like evaluating yourself how??
