In living this life, every human being must find twists and turns that make him feel happiness and sadness alternately. When the path of life takes us to the pinnacle of success, only happiness fills us. It's as if everything in the universe supports all of our plans and grants all our wishes. But there will be times when the way of life takes us far down. At that time, all happiness will disappear and we feel that everything that happens in this world always seems bad. All our plans seem to be thwarted, all our dreams seem to disappear.

We should be able to respond to this dynamic change in life wisely. Not by taking things for granted, but not by exaggerating. One way to be persistent in living life with all the dynamics in it is to do self-introspection. Self-introspection is a process in which a person makes observations of himself. Through self-introspection, a person will be able to fully reveal all the thoughts he is aware of. Self-introspection also helps humans reveal their desires, down to their weaknesses and strengths.

Self-introspection can help a person to reflect on himself and his life so far. What he has done so far has been able to bring him to the pinnacle of success. As well as what had been done, either directly or indirectly, made him fall into the hole of failure.

Through self-introspection, it will be easier for us to determine our life goals in the future. Of course, the purpose of life that we get through self-introspection will be able to lead us as humans to achieve a better life.

HOW TO DO INTROSPECTION


  • Be aware of your own weaknesses when doing introspection

To be able to do self-introspection, one must put oneself in the lowest position. With humility, we will be better able to realize what we have done wrong. Self-introspection carried out with humility can have more profound results because we don't miss a lot.

In contrast to humility, introspection without getting rid of pride is impossible. Arrogant people don't want to do self-evaluation when doing introspection because they always feel right. As a result, the introspection that is done will not be useful because the introspection that is done will not bring personal growth. People who are proud of self-introspection will only continue to blame others, situations, even God. Therefore, always humble ourselves when we introspect ourselves.

  • Introspection in every aspect of life

Many people do self-introspection after experiencing a failure. This is certainly not wrong, because introspection is expected to be able to make someone realize the mistakes he has done and to be able to become a better person in the future. In fact, self-introspection can be done in every aspect of life. Introspection can be done before we plan to do something. By doing introspection at the beginning, we will be able to assess what are our weaknesses and strengths, so that we can minimize the possibility of failure that can occur.

Self-introspection can also be done when we are realizing our plans. This introspection is needed so that we can examine the things that we have been doing so far. If at this introspection we find an error, we can immediately correct it. This is certainly able to prevent failure in our plans. We also need to do self-introspection at the end of time after we have done something. Experience is the best teacher. Therefore, introspection after we have done something will be useful to improve what has happened. Introspection at the end of the plan is also useful for learning so that in the future you do not repeat the same experience.

  • Introspection is a process towards a better person

Self-introspection does not mean being judgmental or self-condemning. Self-introspection is a form of generosity to improve and develop oneself. For some people, self-introspection is a difficult thing to do. In fact, self-introspection is a very important thing to do, especially for adults. People who have difficulty self-introspection tend to be childish. Because personal maturity and maturity are born from openness to evaluate and develop oneself.
