The Army has a system called After Action Review where previous efforts are evaluated. We don't pull punches in AAR. This harsh and honest self-analysis is the foundation of any improvement process. How can you fix what you haven't identified? Look at what you are doing and criticize the snot out of it. Be a harsh self-critic and you will finally see your flaws as others do. Self-awareness is the beginning of wisdom and a task master that frees you from ignorance.
"Suit yourself, but is there anyone who is really good? Maybe goodness is just make-believe....Man just wants to forget the bad stuff and believe the made-up good stuff. It's easier that way."
-The Commoner; played by Kichijiro Ueda in Akira Kurosawa's controversial film, Rashomon
