OPTQ-4-Who is the person who can tell me more about myself?

Every person strives to know what others think about them, and rarely do people seek feedback to know more about themselves. Below is a quote stated by Antisthenes which not only provokes us but also helps us to think logically and emotionally to understand why we should connect with others

Antisthenes was a Greek philosopher and a pupil of Socrates who lived between 445 and 365 BC. He quoted that following

There are only two people who can tell you the truth about yourself -an enemy who has lost his temper and a friend who loves you dearly.

Knowing about yourself is like a company that seeks feedback to improve its business, if you believe in continuous improvement, it is better to know more about yourself than to talk about others.

If you want to know more about yourself listen to your enemy & have a set of friends who can take the liberty of giving feedback to you.

Alternatively, they may bring up personal emotions, like health or family issues. These reactions often occur while the other person is still speaking, leading to a decreased understanding and an increased eagerness to defend one’s position. During this type of conversation, the listener may appear restless, exhibiting a lack of eye contact or head nodding. In such interactions, th...
