SELF-ASSESSMENT TIME
You need to improve every day from the inside out. You must embrace growing and should be able to evaluate yourself daily. Let’s start being really honest. “I want you to look in the mirror and take an assessment of yourself,” Yalden said. “I don’t want you to look at how you look. You’re beautiful. You know that. I know that – but I want you to look in the mirror and I want you to look at who you are.” Yalden said that when you look at who you are, then how you look takes care of itself. “When you look in the mirror, I want you to ask better questions. I want you to seek to improve every single day. I want you to learn to love yourself – and that’s a process in itself – but I want you to work from the inside out.” He said to stop worrying so much about what you’re wearing, how you look – if your clothes match or if your hair is OK. “Start looking at who you are as a person. Embrace the growth – the integrity – the character – the kindness – the authenticity. Embrace the person that you are deep inside. When you work on this, everything else will take care of itself. Admitting and accepting that you have flaws in part of the process, according to Yalden. “None of us are perfect. We all have flaws, but the person I respect the most is the one that’s working every day to improve – working every day to be a better person.”
