Have you ever watched an entrepreneurial reality show like Shark Tank or The Profit and cringed at some of the answers that they gave the host's questions???
"If we could capture 1% of the total market, then we will be rich."
"If you tell me to jump, I will say how high?"
"Our customer is literally everyone!"
As much as I smack my forehead and Monday Morning Quarterback what I would do in that situation, I have to take a step back and wonder...
What am I doing wrong in business or life where if someone is watching, they would slap their forehead?
Sometimes I wish there was a camera on my life so I can see myself in the third person and be able to critique my choices and actions. I journal almost everyday, but that really doesn't have the same effect.
Either way, I think that it is important that we try to reflect on our thoughts, opinions, and actions on a daily basis.
In Stoicism they say to use confidence with things that are out of our control and use caution with things that are in our control (will, choices, opinions). This will help us uncover the truth and guide us down the right path.
Do you wish you could see yourself in the third person?
EDIT: Title and grammar.
