Examining your navel

[yveskleinsky]

While I was going through Russ' challenge to track my expenses for 30 days, I started to really analyze who I was and who I wanted to be. Thinking along these lines made me come up with some interesting questions- I thought I would share them with you guys. I'd be curious to see if anyone has any other introspective questions to add- or the answers that you get!

Questions:

1. Who am I? ...and who do I want to be?
2. What would I need to do, or what habits would I need to develop to become this person?
3. What things do I need to change in order to increase the speed I travel to achieve my goals faster?
4. What are my strengths?
5. What are my weaknesses?
6. Can I partner with people who have complimentary skills?
7. What am I willing to give up to live up to my potential?
8. What are three things I can do right now that would move me in the direction of being the person I want to be?
9. How am I tracking my progress?
