This exercise encourages introspection, and shines a light on insights that are often sidestepped, hidden in shadows, or swept under the rug due to our bustling lifestyles or fear of vulnerability.
The process of self-assessment works as a mirror, reflecting back on who you currently are in your journey. As you navigate through the questions, remember there are no "right" or "wrong" answers, only your truth. Embrace them, for therein lies significant insight. This is an essential step in identifying your tools and roadblocks and understanding what helps you flourish and what hinders your growth.
Once we have these answers, we can start addressing them: planting more of what enriches us and learning to weed out what slows our growth. It's all about growing our garden of self-love.
